It’s more like a photobook, more defined and detailed”. - Marta Del Grandi\u003cbr\u003eFurther into Dream Life, Alpha Centauri is a haunting introspective slice of pop magic that allows Marta’s gorgeous vocal to prowl in nostalgia for teenage times, rediscovering her inner child while a distant tuba carries a counter melody. The title track examines the quantum leap between reality and our dreams and ambitions, a counter point to Shoe Shaped Cloud and its brooding study of a relationship gone awry that’s propelled by an aching vocal which recalls Radiohead at their most brittle.  \u003cbr\u003eThe album reflects a growing awareness that we cannot fully control the future or the outcome of our plans. This thread weaves throughout the record, a journey that is poetic, ironic, and deeply grounded in the present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLISTING\u003cbr\u003eA1 You Could Perhaps\u003cbr\u003eA2 Dream Life\u003cbr\u003eA3 Antarctica\u003cbr\u003eA4 20 Days of Summer\u003cbr\u003eA5 Alpha Centauri\u003cbr\u003eB1 Shoe Shaped Cloud\u003cbr\u003eB2 Neon Lights\u003cbr\u003eB3 Gold Mine\u003cbr\u003eB4 Some Days (feat.
