"I remember seeing a trailer for Brazil in the cinema, and it was like nothing I’d ever seen. I was desperate to watch it; I remember cutting out magazine articles about it and daydreaming about what it was like. I was too young to get in to the cinema to see it, and it was five years before I finally got to view it. I loved it. To me, Brazil has everything: it’s funny, horrible, elegant, and messy. It has De Niro in and throws him away, has the hero . . . well, you know how it ends. From Brazil I went back and watched all Gilliam’s movies and was introduced to Python. I’ve bought this again and again and again. It felt right to have this on Criterion, to sit with my various VHS copies."

CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated Rêveries by Rob Simonsen in Music

Sep 2, 2019

Rob Simonsen began playing the piano at a young age by picking out melodies he heard in his parents’ record collection, and soon started composing for himself. “I daydreamed a lot when I was young,” he remembers. “I’d sit at the piano, and it was very much about escape: letting my mind wander, exploring.”

Simonsen’s deep habit of daydreaming is at last gratifyingly indulged on his long-awaited solo debut RÊVERIES, announced today for a September 6th release date on Sony Music Masterworks. On latest single Coeur, the acoustic piano takes the spotlight, but Simonson also develops an echoed 16-note pulse, as well as hints of a chamber-pop orchestra, away the distance. The result is a delicious tension between unctuous and stoic: opposing forces that, together, lead us gently towards catharsis. Coeur is the introspective and delicately-balanced debut single from Rob Simonsen, featuring a gorgeous combination of electronic minimalism and classical music composition.
