	“A swirling array of succulently smouldering after hours night pop” With melodic sensibilities relatable to the satiny, chill-out esthetics of My Bloody Valentine and the moaning, noir-pop atmospherics of Sisters Of Mercy, songwriter/electronic artist Luke Corradine, aka Roebeck, is joined by a wide palette of guest vocalists, for his latest recording Hurricanes On Venus from iLabel Records. A quintessential presario at creating airy sonic escapes and smooth spirals of floating sensations, Corradine expands chillwave's circumference and flexes his limbs through ethereal-pop's playground. His music is sonic cushions for the ears. Hurricanes On Venus gives audiences the impression that nature is filled with blissful effects. His melodic phrases have a natural and harmonious flow covered in picturesque tones and reclining spirals that are reminiscent of New Age artists. Corradine's music is unpolluted by angst and aggression. The melodies are pure and pliable and feel sumptuous on the ears. He makes you want to enjoy life's subtle pleasures and relish its succor essence. Based in the UK, Corradine is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, songwriter, and arranger whose music has a cinematic pitch. He draws out eclectic tones which give his songs an ethereal flesh. Corradine gives chillwave a boost of adrenaline, injecting elements of coffeehouse-pop and country twang as he makes an album that is a sonic escape into a world of solace and comfy reclines. The spacy effects of White Universe permeate a futuristic feel while the lounging chill-out silhouettes of Starry Night On Emerald Bay confluence into a picturesque palate of orchestral orbs and a shoegazy base. The bucolic stream of gentle ringlets with a country-folk twang and soothing sonic effects in The Rite Of The Blue Bird thread earthy overtones through the track, which are wheedled into therapeutic caresses and blissful atmospherics in My Brother. The shimmery noir-pop texture of When Love Brings The Fall exudes a dungeon-like echo which morphs into a tender coffeehouse-pop trundle in 'Blueberry Jam,' while the softly brushed strokes and compliant folk-pop planes of Just Wanna Be Loved share characteristics with singer-songwriter Matt Costa. Corradine shows a talent for taking a blank canvas and painting attractive sonic montages in lush vistas and swirling figures molded from ambient tones. His music calms emotions with lifting electro-infused spirituals.
