Derek Thompson - Black Lux

Review by Cheryl Peltier-Davis

Derek Thompson's latest album, Black Lux, is a bold and powerful collection of songs that showcase his musical talents and artistic vision. From the opening track, "Black Hole," to the closing number, "The End of the World," Thompson takes his listeners on a journey through a dark and haunting landscape of sound.

The album is characterized by its heavy use of distorted guitars, thunderous drums, and brooding vocals, which combine to create a sense of foreboding and intensity. The songs are filled with intricate melodies and intricate arrangements that keep the listener engaged and intrigued throughout.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Blood Moon," a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Thompson's vocal range and emotive power. The song is a perfect example of the kind of emotional depth and complexity that permeates the entire album.

  • Black Lux is a piece composed to mark the 50th anniversary of the cinematic release of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.
  • Inspired by and making reference to the film, it was completed on the day that the death was announced of Douglas Rain (who supplied the voice of HAL).
  • Taking its main inspiration from the György Ligeti pieces used in 2001, Black Lux manages to impart the sensation of the same teeming vastness and unearthly intensity as the film did upon its release in 1968.
  • Intended to be both classical in structure and contemporary in its approach, this inventive composition samples segments of both the musical and non-musical elements of the original sound design in order to create both an unnerving but satisfying audio experience.
