The new Danish band Shanghai plays decadent, arabesque pop, whose pathos and atmosphere evoke memories of bands like Tears for Fears, Yes and late Pink Floyd. The band’s musical vision is rarely seen in Denmark, but their faith in it is unwavering. Employing plenty of synth scapes, slow bass and ornamented synth figures, Shanghai creates appealing pop which like the arabesque keeps spinning like a spiral – round and round to infinity and beyond!
