Here is where Trappes sings her sorrow away and Hindman showcases his capable musicality, painting a backdrop to the mournful lyrical content. But a new kind of diluted pop manifests itself on вЂCoercionвЂ™, which brings the works of Toyah and co to mind. вЂDownturnвЂ™ is dark and cinematic, very David Lynch style weird on the surface, but meaningful deep beneath. The question of вЂњare you ok?вЂќ seems to prevail throughout the album, with a calling to be open minded and kind hearted to the fellow human beings.

The very retro feel of вЂElectric LightвЂ™ brings to mind the early works by THE HUMAN LEAGUE or NEW ORDER with Siouxie-esque vocals and old school sounds. вЂU OKвЂ™ though explores nature sounds and positive vibes, before being rudely interrupted and cut short. Meanwhile вЂInfinityвЂ™ bears all the characteristics of the duoвЂ™s well known sound, with a nod to THE PRODIGY laced throughout. вЂAutonomyвЂ™ bears a resemblance to their previous works with the metallic eponymous title track, which is raw and tribal, minimalistically sparse and containing only a pinch of vocal. They do it in their own time, their own way with no outside interactions.Дismayed, as is most of the UK population, with the politics, the seemingly never ending Brexit saga, peopleвЂ™s apparent disconnection from reality and the growing socio-economic gap, the duo draw strength from their relationship and wish to impart some positivity into the otherwise darkening landscape.

The second long player proper вЂStill // AloneвЂ™ showed further potential with its undiluted grown up timeless synthscapes and this summer celebrates ten years of the coupleвЂ™s musical endeavours with вЂAutonomyвЂ™. Their first album вЂVoluspaвЂ™ showed some integral songwriting knowledge, with well-placed singles such as вЂSolid GoldвЂ™, вЂThunderbirdвЂ™ and вЂHide MeвЂ™. Vocalist Penelope Trappes, originally from Australia, joined Ohio-born synth programmer Stephen Hindman in New York before relocating to London. Who does mysterious Scandinavian flavoured electronica well, having swapped their respective countries for the gloominess of LondonвЂ™s Peckham? THE GOLDEN FILTERвЂ¦
