Review by Tom McKinney

Phalanxes, the latest album by Alan S Tofighi & Francisco Marin, is a stunning collaboration that showcases the duo's exceptional musical talents. The album features a perfect blend of electronic and acoustic elements, creating a unique and captivating sound that is both modern and timeless.

From the opening track, "Astral Plane," the listener is transported into a dreamlike world of ethereal melodies and hypnotic beats. The album then takes the listener on a journey through a variety of moods and styles, from the hauntingly beautiful "Traces" to the upbeat and energetic "Fireflies."

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Phalanxes," which features a powerful and driving rhythm that perfectly captures the intensity of the song's title. The use of layered vocals and intricate instrumentation creates a sense of unity and strength, making it a standout track on the album.
