Most recommended are the tracks: Daylight, Put Your Feet In Front Of Mine, Follow, See Me While Hiding. Suitable for rainy days, reading, autumn walks and so on. But what the album misses is something that could make it exceptional, that has never been there before. It leads me to think of Ane Brun for example or maybe Ingrid Olava. Lots of guitar, lots of percussion (talking about cymbals and jazz brushes). A singer & songwriter's album including everything from indie to pop. While Hägglund's debutalbum was very playful and reminded very much of circus music is this album of a quite different character. You can listen to the album via Spotify and Wimp. The album can be bought via, Platekompaniet or directly from Havnevik's webstore and downloaded from several music stores.
You was released on the 10th of February with Continentica Records. Most recommended are the tracks: Castaway, Disobey (with a very clever, catchy and interesting signature), Halo and Soon. All in all, an enriched and danceable electronic-pop fusion - with the conclusion that Havnevik should be way more popular. Or more specifically: Imogen Heap meets Nils Petter Molvær. Something that is really nice about the album are the richely used jazz elements like the useage of brass instruments which reminds me a bit of Nils Petter Molvær. Although the songs on You sound much more optimistic and lively with lots of drumming. And Havnevik follows the track of her first album with popsongs ranging between jazz and electronic. You can listen to the album via Spotify and Wimp.įinally the long-awaited follow up for Melankton was released. The album can be bought via, Platekompaniet or directly from Tone Jorunn Tveito and downloaded from several music stores. Vindlaus was released on the 3rd of February with Circle Media. Most recommended are the tracks: Håret likar å strukje seg mjukt, Ho heve han i hugjen, Bergtekjen and Ingen Veit. Can't think of any other album sounding that Norwegian and reflecting the country's lifestyle that much. Right now I can't think of any other artist that could be a better ambassador for Norwegian music than Tveito. The tracks are partly quite mysteriously, whispered others are energetic and impulsive in their beats. It's just the perfect mixture of old and new elements and influences and Norwegian lyrics. Many tried to combine those and ended up being sneered at. Imagine traditionall music mixed with elements from electronic and jazz. The album (even vinyl) can be bought via, Platekompaniet or directly from Sundfør's webstore and downloaded from several music stores. The Silicone Veil was released on the 23rd of March licenced by EMI Music Norway AS. better get your own opinion), furthermore recommendable are When and White Foxes. Most recommended are the tracks: Rome (exceptional in its beauty and setup of tension my favourite), The Silicone Veil - with the music video that was described as "Sundfør surprises with sex-video" by Dagbladet (serious journalism here. They could sound sweet and innocent, yet the songs theme is rather tough and serious which is reflected in the well thought-out lyrics. What makes this music so special is the way Sundfør is putting her songs together. All combined with Sundfør's matchless voice. Similar to The Brothel we find here piercing synthesizers, roaring basses and drums but also smooth piano and string arrangements. Pure Susanne Sundfør experience on this record. The album (even vinyl) can be bought via, Platekompaniet or directly from Karmakosmetix Records and downloaded from several music stores.

NB: Read a full review of the album in my blog -> Hanne Kolstø | FlashBlackįlashBlack was released on the 14th of September with Karmakosmetix Records. Most recommended are the tracks: Carousel which also has a great music video (the best music video of the year if you ask me - Norway in a nutshell - watch the video here!), Pretty Veil, The Scoop and Far Ahead. The Norwegian newspaper Nordlys wrote about Hanne Kolstø: "The most gripping thing Norwegian music got to see in a very long time." And I just couldn't agree more with that!! It's a perfect mess - overwhelming at first but when you notice that every single word and tone was precisely placed on purpose you just want to let the album embrace you. It's a mixture of styles, stealing freely from different genres, putting the unusual together, the mood is changing like the weather, creativity in chaos, uniting the opposites. She had me with her debutrecord Riot Break.
