Releasedate: 21-01-2011; Label: Danse Macabre
By: Nina Mende

Dhyamara is an electro-pop duo from Rome. Founded in 2009 they try to revive 80s synth pop. Their first release was an EP which was quite successful in Italy. Now with their debut album “The Last Embrace” they are trying to follow through with their plan.

Eleven tracks are on “The Last Embrace”. Like dark fairies the music and voice of the singer starts floating around you when listening to the songs. Soft electro with sometimes a strange language – which is not Italian, I could tell that much – that seem to create a whole new world of its own. It seems like the singer Ninfa is taking you by the hand, leading you through a dark enchanted forest. Dark yet full of positive energy – the odds carry through the entire album, which makes it highly interesting. A gloomy album that somehow still carries the light inside. “The Last Embrace” is not really the revival of 80s synth pop, but Dhyamara definitely created something interesting and special with their music. I am looking forward to hear more of them and see them around at the electro festivals. Check out Dhyamara’s debut album “The Last Embrace”, it is released now!
