Review by Toluse Francis

Turquoise Days' album Splintered Colours is a mesmerizing journey through the synth-pop landscape. The Manchester-based duo, consisting of musicians Luciano Brambilla and David Le Breton, has created a unique sound that blends elements of new wave, post-punk, and electronic music.

The album starts off with the upbeat track "Grey Skies," which sets the tone for the rest of the record. The use of synths and drum machines creates a nostalgic sound that transports the listener back to the '80s. The vocals are dreamy and ethereal, adding to the overall ambiance of the album.

Tracks like "Visions" and "Blurred" showcase the band's ability to create a melancholic atmosphere while maintaining a catchy melody. The use of guitar and bass on these tracks adds a layer of depth to the already intricate soundscapes.

The album's title track, "Splintered Colours," is a standout. The song's intro is reminiscent of a sci-fi movie soundtrack, and the chorus is infectious, making it one of the album's most memorable tracks.

About Turquoise Days

Hailing from Jersey, Channel Islands, U.K., Turquoise Days was formed in 1981 by Luciano Brambilla and David Le Breton. Throughout the 1980s, they self-released many cassettes, as well as the renowned masterpiece "Grey Skies / Blurred" 7'' single. Their music has a melodic, emotive, and cold synth sound. David and Luciano met at a nightclub on the surfers beach at St. Ouens, Jersey, called "Waves" that played alternative music at the peak of disco and MOR music. They played many live gigs in Jersey starting with their own instrumental intro music Fragments Of Glass (Hide My Eyes) which had Russian radio broadcasts incorporated and their own light show and Chris Petra, the sound engineer, became the bass player contributing bass to later songs such as "Scattering Seeds
