All Of This Is Resolved 05:48 INFO On an ambitious new album entitled ËœTwo Is Not a Numberâ„¢, Dessagne immerses herself more fully than ever in the concept that inspired her artist name, exploring the entwined lives and fates of her imaginary twins, their schizophrenic dreams, small dramas, and big tragedies - a metaphor for our own psyche, our inner conflicts, and our relationship to others and otherness. These musings on the psychological, emotional, biological, and metaphysical qualities of Twins are expressed with assured clarity, using a palate of icy deep techno, eerie atmospheric soundtracks, tranced-out dark wave, and synth pop-noir. Whether through airborne dancefloor ascension, diamond hard rhythms, electronic thundercracks, or empathy drenched vocals and the palpable sense of unease, this standout album brings Dessagneâ„¢s powerful, affecting art into sharp focus. I Was First takes listeners to the Fantastic Twinsâ„¢ origin, a vocal transmission from within a sonic womb, as our protagonists prepare to emerge. Sisters at Odds sees our siblings emerge incongruous and freshly awoken to lifeâ„¢s absurdities in slow-motion. Suspensefully, the percussive heartbeat of Land of Pleasure Hi Fi wrings tension from numerology, blossoming into a scorched industrial ballet, a mirage of multiplicity. Following the gothic connection of Master & Disciple, Silver Moon Dial incants a trance-like state that captures the physical energy of Dessagneâ„¢s live show, as Fantastic Twins take advantage of Ëœputting the moon on speed dial.â„¢ Euphoria soon splinters into tragedy with Twins Canâ„¢t Love, extracting unexpected melody and melancholy in brittle, IDM tinged electronics, beautifully tangled with Dessagneâ„¢s longing intonations. From Above sees Dessagneâ„¢s vocals once again shift into a new form for a haunting interpretation of something approaching a ballad, echoing around a chamber from which the Twins have seemingly disappeared. Ultimately All of This is Resolved, both in title and form, within this albumâ„¢s cathartic yet uneasy conclusion. Dessagne sends the siblings home at last... But what will we find if we follow?
