{"product_id":"ikarus-plasma-music-cd-610098167006","title":"Ikarus - Plasma - Music CD","description":"In Greek, plasma is defined as a malleable substance. It's what stars are made of. When lightning strikes, plasma is created. In essence, it's matter in a high energy state. Poetically speaking, however, it's something akin to nature's special effects, i. e., it's what makes beautiful, magical things transpire; whether it's the seemingly infinite spray of fire suspended out in space or the flickering, buzzing, multi-colored signs cluttering a narrow side-street in Hong Kong. On their fourth full-length record, Ikarus turns their attention towards what is officially considered the fourth state of matter, hence the title: Plasma. Plasma marks a major shift for the band-away from the sonically \"immersive\" and towards an almost tactile, physical quality of sound: the type that is associated with functional electronica. This is also Ikarus at their most affecting, playful, and fluent. There's a lot of latent hope found in these compositions, and the turns are wild! Their rhythmic and harmonic equations are as complex as ever-on Altaelva the time signature changes from 7\/4to 6\/4 to 5\/4 respectively-but their delivery is marked by a lightness and infused with a spectral gradient of emotion.","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42321118036043,"sku":"RNIR30.2","price":22.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/7223\/1499\/files\/4311784-3207721_e4b00235-650f-45f0-893d-8e5e6c0a6850.jpg?v=1775788181","url":"https:\/\/rockbandmerch.com\/products\/ikarus-plasma-music-cd-610098167006","provider":"Rock Band Merch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
