“Mata Hari” (meaning “sun” in Malay) reimagines the sound of the ‘80s in the year 2080. The song is told through the eyes of an artist, who creates a painting as a declaration of love and as a testament to the intensity of emotions and feelings (for another) when words and action were inadequate.
Airy and atmospheric, “Mata Hari” (meaning “sun” in Malay) reimagines the sound of the ‘80s in the year 2080. Pensive and wispy vocals echoed by futuristic synths layered over delayed octave basses, piano, guitars, and brasses, over a classic 80’s new wave beat.
Released on October 16, 2020, “Mata Hari” is the fourth single of The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS). The track forms part of the independently produced album ‘Full Spectrum’.
