TOMORA

[ThePumisher]

more Hanna love from Aurora in that interview. I admire she has such high regards for that movie/soundtrack

They could play Hanna's Theme. Just sayin...

They've uploaded the BBC 6 Music mix onto their YT-Channel

Thought I'd mirror an announcement from the TOMORA Discord in here as well for all UK peeps:

Fontana Records invite you to join them at Spiritland, Kings Cross TOMORROW, April 16th at 6:30pm to celebrate the release of TOMORAs debut album 'COME CLOSER'!

The event will entail an audio intro from TOMORA, a playback of the album in full, drinks & nibbles and the opportunity to do some drawing/writing if you wish. A last few spots are available though this RSVP form: https://uk-umg.com/um-forms/60161-1308774.html. Claim them while you can!

TOMORA will be at Coachella Festival, so will not be in attendance.

I really wish I could go, but I hope one of you can go in my place and have double the amount of fun!

Just call me Mr Delayed Gratification, because I will be waiting the extra day to hear the whole album. 

Very excited about that track though! The performance of it at Coachella basically solo convinced me to pull the trigger on the glow in the dark vinyl

According to DHL my pre-order CD will arrive today so maybe Tomora is already today for me 

[Csar]

TOMORA never knows!

[Csar]

Not for Delayed-Gratificationists

Hope the album version is as long as the live one. Because THIS IS TOO SHORT!111Eleven! Ey yau ya ya-whyiah!

I Drink The Light is stunning. So hopeful and full of wonder.

Derp. Hit reply way too soon. To add: I am in awe of the glittering, rippling landscape of sound. 

I get feelings from this, like what it felt like to hear Escape Velocity for the first time. Or experiencing the Private Psychedelic Reel live for the first time. Or what it felt like watching shooting stars in Joshua Tree back when the skies were darker. I Drink The Light is earthy and otherworldly at the same time. And yes so hopeful and full of wonder.

Good stuff.

This.
The way this track unfolds is so satisfying. It's an immediate leg-mover. That subtle wobbly bassline that kicks the track into motion, the acidy arpeggios, that oldschool-ish breakbeat and the beautiful voice of Aurora all merge into something irresistible and euphoric.

DHL says nope, I have to wait until Tomora like everybody else

Oh are those the lyrics? I was struggling.

There's a wikipedia page for the album with track times, and it says 7:56. Longest track on the album.

I will wax lyrical about this track more in future posts.
BTW I think the album is already on the interwebs...somewhere.

I tried to put into words what Aurora says at the end.

Thanks!

Woah! 

I'm surprised at your reaction because the words/paragraph you spoke ( including Csar and Enjoyed) are not taken lightly. All your write-ups sounds like 1990's-ish chems album reviews, and I'M DIGGING IT MAN! SERIOUSLY DIGGING IT MAN!

My mind is now telling me 'calm down hippie, it's just one track from the Tomora album.'

True! But when she finishes listening to the whole album, then she'll write Paused in Cosmic Reflection 2:Tomora edition, and do a massive write-up on how the album saved the kingdom, slaughtered the evil, and restored beauty to our ears while we're listening to the album through premium music services.

Your excitement Enjoyed when you saw Tomora on the stream also hit me as well. It was during 'Come Closer', and after watching repeats of it, I pulled the trigger of getting the white variant of the album on release day.

The Thing still unbeatable, just saying

Longest track on the album.

Well, so In A Minute is not gonna be the 11 min stomper I was also hoping for? Dayeum.

[sneakerbeater]

It this the best track by the Chems that isn't the by chemical brothers!? Incredible track! Was the standout track at the London show last month. Its a track on that night gave me massive Turnmills vibes. Always in awe of Tom's creative mastery

So now that we know Aurora can speak japanese, two questions come to my mind:

• Is the japanese bonustrack "Wavelenghts (Who Am I)" just the regular Wavelenghts but Aurora is singing in japanese?
• Is there somewhere in the RAR-Studios vaults a version of Eve Of Destruction where the part that is sung by Nene is sung by Aurora?

And talking about the japanese bonustrack: Where can one listen to it?



My Baby samples It Began In Afrika around 01:46 (IBIA album version around 5:20) and again at 3:37

Dude what!?

So excited for tomorrow

[ThePumisher]

Maybe i'm wrong, but it sounds like that sample from IBIA, just a little reworked
