Lovechild of the kindred introverts Angel Deradoorian and Kate NV, Decisive Pink has finally stepped up with their hotly anticipated debut, Ticket to Fame. It's a flamboyant and whimsical portal into an experimental krautrock and pop mixture, which exudes a singular tone that seamlessly aggregates the distinct character of both its authors. Tucked away in the sanctuary of their "synth-dome"—a friend's recording studio in Cologne, which has since served as their base of operations—Deradoorian and NV's mutual disconnect from the outside world seems to permeate the tone of the album. Bashful instrumentation and buoyant, incidental synths harmonise from the very first track, "Haffmilch Holiday," as cutty bleeps, new-wave saws and metronomic 808 percussion tick gently across the bar lines. Combined with the words, which convey their own sense of childlike escapism, the result is this picturesque, idyllic quality—the kind which would pair well with a Wes Anderson film, or a romp around the park with your dog. That same cinematic quality is echoed elsewhere in the album, like the angsty teen-movie ballad "Ode to Boy," as well as the space-age synth-pop odyssey "Cosmic Dancer." Other high points are reached with the distorted quasi-slam-poetry of "What Where," and the inquisitive "Destiny," both of which conjure up a thick mystical atmosphere, using voodoo flutes and anxious vocals. Overall, it's a debut which assuredly demonstrates the atypical, adventurous nature of this collaboration, and promises a whole lot for the future. More please! © Finn Kverndal/Qobuz
