The idea I proposed earlier in the year was an orchestral sound with "temporal effects." Notes, melodies, rhythms played backwards, forwards, rewinding and such, as if the music itself was subject to their powers of time distortion. The sound also took on some electronic, sort of ambient qualities as it developed. You could refer to the genre as "temporelechestral." If you wanted to say a mouthful. Nice job to [[group:clark-powell|Clark Powell]] for mastering this whole thing, as well as including a few of her own great songs in the list too. The whole thing strikes me as a very tight bit of production. Sick cover art by hypertalented and prolific HS fan artist, [[artist:molly-gur|SkepticArcher]]. + + <i>Cindy Dominguez:</i> ([whatpumpkin.com news post](https://web.archive.org/web/20110208011641/http://whatpumpkin.com/)) + + Another one that's been a long time coming. This album has been in the works since about the time [[album:midnight-crew-drawing-dead]] was released. Clearly there are time-related shenanigans afoot! + + As it happens, if you are a fan of time-related shenanigans, surely you will be a fan of this album. It's an orchestral score, done up Felt-style--The Felt imbues this music with effects borne of their time-distortion proclivities. It's ambient, it's intriguing, it's a little dark, and it's a even little funny. It's a gold mine. + + Big thanks to [[artist:clark-powell|Clark "Plazmataz" Powell]] for polishing up this gem with her mastering skills. + + Also, have you SEEN that cover art? Wicked classy. That's all [[artist:molly-gur|SkepticArcher]] right there. + + <i>Homestuck:</i> ([whatpumpkin.com side blurb](https://web.archive.org/web/20110208011641/http://whatpumpkin.com/)) + + The Felt classes up the joint a bit with their chrono-tastic orchestral self-titled album. You won't know whether you're coming or going when you're done with it.
