“We turn on our computers
And make music synthesized.
Maybe that’s what you were like
In nineteen eighty five?
Our visions of the future
Kept us focused and alive.
Maybe that’s what we were like
In nineteen fifty five?
Breaking down our boundaries
So that we can harmonise.
Maybe that’s what we’ll be like
So we can all survive?…”

about
TRILIGHT is a music side project by INTELLIGENTSIA, that takes a varied and experimental excursion across film score soundtracks, electronica, progressive rock and techno pop. Musically the soundscapes concentrate on different forms of metallic instrumentation, giving them an overall and distinctive shiny or twinkly “TRI-LIGHT” sound. Music for piano and orchestra later develops into progressive electronica and rock, with the lead track, entitled “1985” being a nostalgic nod to the album composers first steps into music.
Bronwen Stephens, and Mimi Ward provide additional vocals, with MIRAI on vocoder, piano, drums, synthesizers and orchestration.
