Murray Reviewed 2011-01-31 | ||
Minimalist/experimental pop with breathy/fragile female vox, slow paced & sparse accompaniment, dreamy, intimate, ever so pretty & weird. Lo-fi, nearly no beats. Real name Alfra Martini, from Brooklyn. It's her debut album, recorded at home. Songs blend into each other. Sweet short film at http://vimeo.com/3550373 featuring two non-album tracks. Play with Eno, Harold Budd, Diana Darby, Rykarda Parasol, David Lynch soundtracks, Lambchop, Eyvin Kang, Broadcast. Just tears-inducing lovely. FCC clean. Start with 3, 5, 9, 17. 1. Twisted. A cappella double-tracked voice. Under a minute. 2. Poignant. Organ, accordion, and voice. Starts w/ 3 s noise. + 3. Longing. Guitar, voice, reverb. 4. Torchy. Piano, voice. + 5. Dreamy/spooky. Synths, voice, reverb. Slow fade. 6. Nostalgia. Guitar, percussion, synths, voices. Ghost of Broadcast. 7. Evocation. Guitar, synths, voices. 8. Darkness. Accordion, synths, keyboards, voice, reverb. + 9. Hope. Synthetic bells, keyboards, voice. 10. Folky. Noise, guitar, voice. (sorta Joanna Newsomish.) Short. 11. Prosaic. Piano, cello, voice, percussion. 12. Surreal. Keys, voices. Spoken word ordering food turns into a song. 13. Solipsistic. Noise, bells, percussion, piano, synths, spoken/sung voice. 14. Hymnic. Piano, noise, synths, voice. 15. Courage. Noise, guitars, voices. 16. Assurance. Guitars, keyboards, percussion, reverb, voice. + 17. Bemusement. Accordion, synths, reverb, clock, spoken voices. 18.
