The Owls Are Not What They Seem 
David Lynch’s television series, “Twins Peaks” embraces the noir of the Pacific Northwest with its mood, mythos and style. A foil exists between the Pacific Northwest logger/grunge type and the classic detective with a Brylcreem coiffure. Pale skin with red lips, pencil skirts and classic Pendleton plaids establish the Twin Peaks style.

The Pacific Northwest’s gloomy backdrop for Lynch’s parallel universe is more than just a setting. It is itself an instigator fueling intrigue, supernatural forces, hallucinations and dreamlike interaction between the characters. The universe Lynch has created is comprehensive down to the most astonishing detail, including the costumes. The following looks define Twin Peaks style:

Loved the Movie and soundtrack - we are working on such a “non-linear but more life affirming with a splacsh of consequences for what was left un-done” piece. Soon after the release of the movie soundtrack DePache Mode went in a similar direction with theie “I feel you” mixes 1 through 8, and the regular release CD. One should check it out.
