The title of Natalie Mering's third album has been taken from the many films based on a well-known ship disaster. Especially eighties vehicles with a potential to flop, such as Raise The Titanic from 1980. The music of this singer-songwriter therefore exudes a retro sound, without it becoming a gimmick. Her music and singing evoke memories of and while also referring to film music. In the special
… song Movies, for example, she alternates dreamy and science fiction-like synthesizers with abruptly started string arrangements. Merings music is as sweet and as soft as cotton candy. In her orchestrated songs, folk and psychedelics frolic around each other almost melancholy. You can therefore let the enamel pop off your teeth for this time. (JvQ)more
