Neon Tallynt

A couple of weeks ago I left you with a song from a new Neon Talent, so now is the time to talk about this girl called Tally Isham.



Tally Isham is the virtual popstar of your dreams. She grew up and studied astrophysics in Scotland, moving to Texas to work at NASA Johnson Space Center in the early 80's. She enjoyed deep sea diving and motorcycle racing before a fatal explosion at the center in 1983. Her image was reborn in the sea of information and she continues to accumulate and augment digital information for your satisfaction.

Her greatest influences include visionaries such as Tangerine Dream, Fantastic Plastic Machine, Vangelis, Queen, Gruppo Bertone, Syd Mead, Hajime Sorayama, Katsuhiro Otomo and Masamune Shirow. Her favorite films are still Brainstorm, Flight of the Navigator, Scanners, THX 1138, Mad Max, Holy Mountain, Vanishing Point, The Warriors, and Westworld.



Tally's music fits what we've been listening lately. It's a very calm and soothing sound but it has that ingredient that makes you play the track again and again, and let's face it people, same sound banging electro is very last year. Arpeggios, 8 bit sounds, old school synth sounds, it could be the soundtrack for a story about a Hero saving the world set in the 80's, or in a videogame for the NES.

So here's an exclusive track from her for all you Neon Rider people, it's called Makeout Sesh and this track will show you the range of Tally's music. And as a double treat i'll leave you a bonus track. Check her myspace and stay tuned because we're going to have some remixes from people that you know remixing Tally's tracks.

We are having some issues with our server so here's the zshare link.
