AFTER BREAKING OUT OF OUR HOLDING FACILITY IN EARLY 2017, WE TRACKED THE HUMANOID ALIEN LIFEFORM KNOWN AS "DARLING" TO A DEEP BUNKER IN AMSTERDAM. WHILE WE WERE UNABLE TO GAIN ENTRY TIO THE INNER CHAMBER, AN OPERATIVE SUCCESSFULLY PLACED AN EAVESDROPPING DEVICE CLOSE BY. WHILE MONITORING THE LIFEFORM'S MOVEMENTS, WE WERE ABLE TO RECORD EIGHT MUSICAL COMPOSITIONS OF VARYING LENGTHS THAT IT HAD CREATED USING A RANGE OF ANALOGUE AND DIGITAL ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENTS. WE HAVE CALLED THIS COLLECTION "TULIPA MOVES". YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THE TRACKS UTILISE A VARIETY OF RHYTHMIC PATTERNS, EXPLORE UNEARTHLY BUT ATTRACTIUVE SOUNDS AND ARE CAPABLE OF STIRRING STRONG EMOTIONS IN HUMAN LISTENERS. WE DIRECT YOUR ATTENTION TOWARDS THE LILTING, SOFTLY SPUN MELANCHOLIA OF COMPOSITION 03 (CODENAME "SO DID WE"),, THE FLUID, BEAT-FREE BLISS OF COMPOSITION 05 (CODENAME "THE M SONG"), AND THE UP-TEMPO POSITIVITY OF COMPOSITION 07 (CODENAME "KISS THE GLASS"), WHOSE CHIMING, INTERTWINED MELODIES AND SNAPPY RHYTHMIC ENERGY REMINDED US OF SO-CALLED "INTELLIGENT DANCE MUSIC". WE WERE ASTONISHED BY THE QUALITY AND INTRICACY OF THESE ALIEN CREATIONS AND THOSE WE HAVE NOT DESCRIBED IN DETAIL. IT STRENGTHENS OUR BELIEF THAT "DARLING" IS A LIFEFORM WITH HIGHER INTELLIGENCE AND OTHERWORLDLY MUSICAL ABILITY.
