Since arriving in 2011—at the crest of an era overflowing with blissful synth projects—Luxembourg-based producer Victor Ferreira (aka Sun Glitters) has earned a loyal following through consistent output, collaboration, and tours alongside the likes of Slow Magic, Son Lux and Gonjasufi. It Will Be Forever finds him channeling the neon-noir of the 1980s (à la Drive OST and the videos games of his youth), recasting retro-futurism under the ominous cloud of today’s digital age. With his trademark electronica—shimmering, bass-driven melodies and a few mindfully placed vocal samples—Ferreira conveys in album format the seven stages of grief. It's an expansive and resplendent listen that ends on a high and hopeful note.
