Oh, The Lumens – Parade
Covid-19 has scattered many good friends and many good musicians around the world. Being at a distance, namely in Berlin and Stockholm, the two creative units that make up the music project Oh, The Lumens closed with new enthusiasm.

Péter Tóth and Rikard Jönsson speak their musical language at a distance, conveying to each other ideas that are worth implementing. Their full-length album 'Parade' was released on June 23. The collection of electronic music consists of 13 tracks. 


In the first part of the 'Incredible Machine', the guitar plays only two notes that are overgrown with synthesizer movements.  Everything goes back and forth rocking the song in the music carousel. 'Paradise City' has a straightforward rhythm and a monotonous vocal effect that varies with synthesizers and short guitar phrases. 


In the composition 'Pet People' against the background of the reef from the synth bass and space synthesizers sounds recitation of the text that is repeated several times as an automatic message. Sounds of Pink Floyd-style guitars and The Who-style synthesizers meets jungle rhythm and polyphonic Asian tune on the track 'Semiconductor'. 


'Facing The Consequences' is a synthesizing game of monotonous repetition of melism and guitar where the meditative atmosphere twists the rhythm around its sound axis. Listen to the full album 'Parade' below on Spotify to look into the bosom of each track and feel its electronic form and live ideas by Oh, The Lumens.
