Saturnine Songs is the 4th album of Swedish band nu-wave band The Search. Ever since their debut album The Search wrap their catchy pop melodies into a gloomy cloak, creating escaping the daily grey routines. When the press is talking about The Search, they speak of a beautiful retro-mix of wave and rock in the vein of The Cure and Joy Division. The band does not deny their roots, but take pleasure in paraphrasing them in their own slightly deranged and atmospheric way. In order to achieve a wider musical range on their 4th album, Saturnine Songs, they hooked up two different producers. Kristofer J?n from the band Jeniferever was hired to conjure up the melancholic, darker part of the album with songs like Yes-Man and Swimmer and Elof Loelv, producer and musician, was engaged to invoke the electronical parts in songs like Distant and Other People, where he created a catchy, yet dreamy sound. The album is mastered at Studio Tonteknik by Magnus Lindberg, a well-known mastering engineer.
