Webzine: Reflections of Darkness (18th of February, 2008)

I guess every Synth Pop fan has dreamt about that moment to come for a long time. Well your prayers have been heard. The Synth Pop heroes of ELEGANT MACHINERY return with their new single ‘Feel the Silence’ and it seems as if they’ve never been away. Like a duck takes to water, they create a fantastic pop song with a strong dance beat and airy 80s synth sounds.

It’s a song that blows away every bad mood in a split second and you just can’t resist but singing along to the chorus. There’s also another song included on that single called ‘Beautiful World’ where the 80s influences are way more intense and another version of ‘Feel the Silence’ but I can’t spot any big differences to the Radio Edit.

The Video Clip to ‘Feel the Silence’ is also included on the CD. ‘Feel the Silence’ is a strong comeback for ELEGANT MACHINERY and I hope a full-length will follow soon.

9/10
