10 Raptures by The Rapture The Rapture : 10 Raptures.
 Electronica with a heart.

Taking inspiration from early Jean Michel Jarre and 80's analogue synth sounds, then combining contemporary dance beats and rhythms with a classical approach to form and structure, the album seeks to take dance music out of the clubs and place it firmly into a listening environment.

The tracks on 10 Raptures are in equal part dance, ambient and trance with a dose of electro thrown in for good measure. 10 Raptures was written, recorded and produced over the course of 10 months from Spring 2011 onwards. Using a multitude of hardware and software synthesizers, samples, drum machines and effects, the tracks were written, recorded, produced and mastered in-house at Mount Street Studio near London.
