Influences: Influido por la new wave, el synth pop, toda la onda post-punk y goth de principios de los ochenta, retoma de ellas sensaciones como el erotismo, la nostalgia y el romanticismo. La creacion de estas atmosferas surge a partir de un uso particular de los teclados y su fusion con instrumentos mas convencionales como la bateria, el bajo, la guitarra electrica y la percusion. Igualmente, se incorporan a dichas masas sonoras, la cadencia laconica de instrumentos clasicos como el piano, la flauta traversa, la viola, el violonchelo y el violin
