It is a classic forty-minute set of inquisitive pop songs, blessed with a lightness of touch and a sharp focus that can’t help but charm the listener. It conjures up some last, faint afterglow of the old belief that an electronic, programmed beat can smash itself - and you - into another, more egalitarian consciousness\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eIt is a remarkable fact that this bold and open-hearted record is made by one person, working alone. Repeatedly reworking the songs until they were complete is a painstaking process that generated an energy and space where Angel Deradoorian could indulge in the arcana of her artform. “I love the production more than the songwriting. [...] In fact, I don’t even feel like a songwriter at times, I feel like someone who is just inspired by so much music. And I want to try it all out! Like Lizzy Mercier Descloux, Mingus, or ESG and Silver Apples, or making weird krautrock and industrial music. I love dub, and Sly and Robbie. I love the productions of those records and the collective energies released by their creators in the studio. It’s just a weird thing to do it by yourself!”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eEngaging with past musical glories helps deal with a major theme of this album; the awful nature of the world around us. Deradoorian: “This album is partly about watching humanity erode. It’s about mental struggle, and it’s avowedly anti-capitalist. I mean; would we have all these identity labels we have to live by, if we didn’t live in a capitalist world?”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eA lot of the lyrical content deals with the struggle to be a human being in the modern world, and the determination to keep on keeping on. But even when a darker mood informs a track, as with ‘Hell Island’ or ‘Digital Gravestone’, there are arrangements that seduce and hooks that ensnare.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eWe are dealing with a world where there is too much chaos to cut through and where human connections are burnt dry. ‘Ready for Heaven’ is an avowedly human response to the world we find ourselves in, and Deradoorian uses every ounce of her reserves of wit and knowledge to create a source of comfort and solace for the listener.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eA1 Storm In My Brain\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eA2 Any Other World\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eA3 No No Yes Yes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eA4 Digital Gravestone\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eA5 Set Me Free\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eB1 Golden Teachers\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eB2 Purgatory Of Consciousness\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eB3 Reigning Down\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eB4 Hell Island\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kuroneko-Boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55115010081141,"sku":"FIRECD768","price":16.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/7631\/9799\/files\/Deradoorian-ReadyforHeaven.jpg?v=1740561182","url":"https:\/\/kuroneko-boutique.com\/en\/products\/cd-deradoorian-ready-for-heaven","provider":"Kuroneko-Boutique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
