Meteoor: A Cosmic Blast By The Waterfront

Have you ever thought on how the sounds of the past and present can blend together seamlessly without detecting an obvious difference? Its akin to describing a generation gap where your parents prefer serene music played by the erhu while you opt for upbeat tunes churned out by a synthesizer but all it took was under an hour to debunk those myths and putting that question to the test. With the tranquil background of the sea and the Esplanade Waterfront providing the platform, local synth pop duo Cosmic Armchair and the Artssphere Chinese Instrumental Trio combined their musical wizardry together on Labour Day to marry their respective sounds in holy matrimony and for the whole of 45 minutes, the crowd were enthralled by the melodic compositions that were being played for the night.As the wonderful Jane lends her sultry vocals and Ben working in tandem with their partners in crime, it was definitely sweet music to the ears and one could feel as though the windows of their soul were being opened up and given a relaxing massage as a form of respite away from hectic life. Exquisitely executed and an evening worth spending, the Cosmic Armchair-Artssphere Chinese Instrumental Trio collaboration at the Esplanade Waterfront managed to tug the heartstrings of both young and old, bridging the gap together and being given a resounding applause for what its worth
