Grimes
Entry updated 3 June 2024. Tagged: Music, People.
Working name of Canadian singer and musician Claire Elise Boucher (1988- ). Her first album Geidi Primes (2010) is a beautiful, slippery collection of hypnagogic electronic pop songs inspired by Frank Herbert's Dune (fixup 1965) and the film version Dune (1984) directed by David Lynch. Several tracks are named after places ("Caladan") or characters ("Zoal, Face Dancer", "Feyd-Rautha Dark Heart", "Shadout Mapes") in the novel, though the lyrics are often unclear and the vocals buried in the instrumental mix.
