After 'Arcane' in 2011 which was inspired by the fantastic novels of 'Kai Meyer', the Germans of ‘Elane' released in 2017 the version 2, 'Arcane 2' which is the continuity of the first album. The 14 tracks are in a very accessible melodic folk register and you could compare their style to the group of 'Candice Night' and 'Richie Blackmore', 'Blackmore's Night'. Led by singer and flautist ‘Joran Elane’, they take us on a folk/pop journey with multiples influences between East ('Sabatea's Song', 'Magic Carpet Ride') and Occident ('Breath Of Gold', 'More Stars Shine on Earth '). The accompaniment of keyboards and strings brings a sweetness to the ensemble and the last title of more than 12 minutes 'Nugua's Journey' supported by classical instruments ends the album with a large symphonic fresco. In short, the remake of ‘Arcane'is advisable to all lovers of pop/folk who like the felted atmospheres filled with delicacy... | |
