A fireworks display in every way!

The end of July I have the synthpop number "Under The Neon Sky" discovered by Marie Marie - unfortunately one of the few. I hope now that Marie Marie manages to attract attention at the national final for ESC 2014 where they will try their luck with the song "Cotton Candy Hurricane" and "Candy Jar".

Why do I hope? Because their debut album "Dream Machine" one of the best albums of recent years seems to be, as far as I can tell after the first few Hördurchgängen. Seldom am right an album right away so euphoric - last happened at about the debut albums by MS MR and Leslie Clio.

Marie Marie combines real instruments such as their trademark, the harp, or the cello with synthetic sounds, and you do not believe what great pop songs she has conjured up with their producers from this mixture. Since no song is it where the spark does not jump, and the vast majority of the album moves at all at the highest level. Even their "mild" uptempo numbers like "Candy Jar", "Cotton Candy Hurricane" or "Under The Neon Sky" sound rich and radiate a lot of energy and dynamism, but also from feeling.

Really strong is Marie Marie, if they slow you down a bit and her whole heart and soul poured into their songs. This happened for example in the songs "20 Steps" and "Tell Me", which bring me these rare gooseflesh and touch me entirely. Even the Closer "Unparadised" is a jewel, which rounds off the album more than perfect.

Thus Marie Marie won a really big fan, and if everything goes wrong, should actually have one or two more to come.
