Miami Horror, initially a solo venture by producer Benjamin Plant, captivates listeners with ethereal melodies woven into down-tempo soundscapes. This album, a blend of funky rhythms, guitar echoes, and glossy electronic sounds, showcases their unique style. In 2021, Miami Horror celebrates the 10th anniversary of their acclaimed debut album, Illumination, originally released in 2010 and nominated for an ARIA award.
Plant shares the journey of creating Illumination: “I started working on ‘Illumination’ at around 19 years old and finished it by 24. It represents a transformative period in my life, capturing the innocence and wonder of youth before adult responsibilities set in. The music reflects the joy of exploration and creativity. Before this re-release, I felt a resurgence of that imaginative spirit, making it the ideal time to reintroduce this album.” The album features standout tracks like “I Look To You” (feat. Kimbra), “Holidays” (feat. Alan Paloma), and “Sometimes,” making it one of the best electronic music albums of 2021.
