SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 3:23 Min.
This 2014 single is a collaboration between composer-musician R. Armando Morabito, his then-wife: cellist Tina Guo, and German-based vocalist Julie Elven. The song is included on Morabito’s 2014 Days of Tomorrow album.
REVIEW:
The pulsating electronica work by R. Armando Morabito delivers terrific European disco-pop comparable to output from the late Robert Miles. Once the ethereal contributions of Tina Guo & Julie Elven kick in, “Hydra” rises up another notch. Yet, it’s hard to define this track as either disco or upbeat New Age — “Hydra” fits either genre. Either way, this track is definitely recommended!
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 8½ Stars
Note: Also, from 2014, Guo & Elven strike again with Morabito on the single: “Sea of Atlas.” A second recommendation is the Morabito/Elven 2014 collaboration: “Angel.”
