| Acre Tarn - Dawn Faces |
Release Date: Out Now
If I told you that Acre Tarn is
actually the pseudonym of Lake District resident Anna-Louisa Etherington, you
would be forgiven for picturing a girl in a chunky sweater, bedraggled hair and
a lot of very wistful acoustic songs. Now, I have no idea what Anna-Louisa
actually looks like but her songs are actually electronic masterpieces that
sweep over landscapes like a montage in the Never Ending Story. 'Dawn Faces'
has the feel of a song that was written in the 80s for a film set far in the
future (y'know, like 2020 or something). As electronic sounds ripple over each
other, a sonic sunrise occurs and Etherington's meek but defiant voice gently
breaks in. After a minute or so, an aggressive beat pushes things to a new
level and then a choir of young voices sings "with our arms outstretched
we're not children anymore". This could easily be this generations
'Another Brick In The Wall' or the theme to some post apocalyptic TV show like 'The
100' - either way it's thoroughly impressive and might just remind the likes of
Ellie Goulding what she could be doing instead of running around in massive
golden hot pants peddling half arsed pop songs. Just sayin'.
