Ancient Dreams In A Modern Land by MARINA
It was released on June 11, 2021
Fun Fact: The album’s title track “Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land” is a logical song to prepare the fans for the main theme of the album: being yourself no matter what. The robotic dance tunes create a harmony with Marina’s operatic voice that gets higher within the chorus. A pandemic that made everyone focus on themselves while being stuck in their homes also inspired Marina to “take a look inside herself” and decide her main theme, captured by the lyrics “You don’t have to be like everybody else/ You don’t have to fit into the norm/ You are not here to conform.” The track’s self-embracing message, colorful theme and robotic beats conspire to evoke an ’80s disco party.
