Things Found on Our Hard Drives: The Lomo Song

April 06, 2011 6 comments

Some years ago we received a promotional CD-ROM of the LOMO PLC factory in St. Petersburg, Russia. Along with a lot of interesting facts about the history of this esteemed factory we've discovered one true gem: the Lomo Song.

Not the choir on this song

We love this for all its combined random elements: an Enya-esque intro evoking meditation soundtracks, crystal clear children choirs, an 80s snare drum that seems to be out of rhythm half the time and a kind of lost 8-bit guitar solo at around 3:10 that sounds like played on a small midi keyboard. And still the song works phantastic!
