The Magnificent Tree

Hooverphonic

Lush cinematic strings meet polished trip-hop grooves. A high-budget, cosmopolitan dream pop record that feels like a noir film set in a rainy European city.

Find on Amazon

It's like the soundtrack to a Bond film that takes place entirely in a rainy Belgian cafe at 3am.

A sophisticated blend of cosmopolitan loneliness and cinematic grandeur.
