Synth Religion
Minuit Machine - 24 / Limited White Edition
Manufacturer
"24" is Minuit Machine's eagerly awaited 4th regular full-length album, following the previous album "Infrarouge" from 2019.
An electronic masterpiece, a subtle mix of dark wave, techno, and electropop, "24" is both surprising and seductive. Authentic, emotional, and powerful, "24" is a true immersion into Minuit Machine's dark, dystopian, and futuristic world. Through this album, Hélène and Amandine confront all the obstacles and disappointments life throws their way. Each track is a self-affirmation, a rallying cry, and an urge to live. The instrumental part is clearly defined and contributes to creating the band's unique sound. The strong beats are a call to dance, while the synths, stabbing and emotional, will definitely move you. Finally, the deep basses give the tracks an "EBM" touch.
Vocal lines are more pop, with less reverb. They are designed to obsess and stay in your head all day long. They were conceived like a 90's dance music chorus, but with feelings. As usual, the lyrics are very personal and describe several states of mind.
Since their inception, Hélène and Amandine have continually reinvented themselves to translate their inner questioning and emotions into music. From this perspective, "24" could be Minuit Machine's most accomplished work, as each track sounds like a confession.
