3 stars A big stylistic shift on this release even though the crew remained the same. This is a pop/rock with some prog rock echoes fully rooted in the European 80's world. Instrumental moments are shorter but still dispersed over the record.

Vocals are actually quite pleaseant in this music setting. "Shadow and light" has good atmospheric keyboards. "Mirador" is a synth-led short song, quite a honour to listen to in 1983.

"Heartbeat" is perhaps the epic of the album thanks to dynamic changes and various synth moods. "A broken frame" is a long composition but relatively static with clear melody but a couple of minutes too long.
