Song Review/ Art Pop : Dorothy Mour’s ‘Run to the Gates of Troy’
Dorothy Mour is a singer-songwriter and an art pop artist. The modernity of her sound is contained in the interaction between vivid intimacy and dazing dreaminess. You’ll especially see it in action in her latest release, ‘Run to the Gates of Troy’. The artist boldly leans into disjointed rhythms, experimental vocal flows and sensual spheres. Her work also encompasses otherworldly feels, often marked by the extended melancholy, nocturnal atmospheres and elaborate subtones.
This track romanticises painful, suffering, passionate love that people wage war for. The dysfunction of it appeals to her. She stretches the boundaries of it with her imaginative swirls of melody, the modernness of her thought and the unique musical frames that she sets up. In the context of her music, this kind of love takes the highest form of feeling. If you like artists like Eartheater, yeule, FKA Wings and Sevdaliza, you’ll love the dark, cinematic minimalism of this artist. Listen Now!
