"Strange Fortune initiates their marketing strategy for Tor LundvallÆs
latest album by commenting on how many artists that you know can deliver
serious and palpably emotive æmultimediaÆ work, inference of course that
Tor Lundvall should be firmly in mind. Yet after ingesting Last Light it
seems there is less multimedia here than the promo sheet would lead the
listener to believe, rather the album intimates only one medium at work
here. No disrespect is intended toward artist or label, but upon the
reposed prelude of Rust, the first track of Last Light, the music proffers
a not so dissimilar facet of the truer medium at work, that of Tor
Lundvall himself. His visual imagery, his aural imagery elucidates a
setting aswirl in chiaroscuro. While it could be said that such a
statement is true of any person with the aspects of their personality,
as teacher, mother, father, friend, sportsman, scholar, there is at work
in Last Light an inimical twining of his chosen expressions into one
voice.
"Tor LundvallÆs oil paintings are ripe in Gaussian vibrancy and the same
can be found in the landscapes and rooms of Last LightÆs music and the
expressive twain could not, should not be separated, as so bonded and
delicately are both sound-wave and paint-stroke masterfully presented.
TorÆs vocals are prominent throughout the album in roundelays and unfurling
verse as hypnotic as the perpetually gliding pads and hazed strings that
lace the otherworldly journey. The fluidity of the instruments never seems
to crowd similarity upon the listener and each seemingly evanescent track
breathes a distance that paints more a scene by its absence of lineated
form. Fear not this album as mere ethereal dream-pop, the journey is not
heavenly and nor is it hellish, yet shades of darkness and light coil about
lyric and melody and neither is too friendly or too familiar.
"Released in a limited edition of 955 copies, the digipak is graced, as
with TorÆs earlier albums, with his oil paintings to set mood and starting
point for what is a haunted and unforgettable surreality."

MORAL DiSCLAiMER: We are very aware of the fact that our releases
contribute to the growing sale losses of record companies.
Unfortunately our style primarily targets small, independant labels
that need sales to survive.
For these reasons we ask you not to distribute this release on public
sites or P2P tools; if more and more receive their music from the net,
artists and labels will have to face even less sells than nowadays.
Please do not consider this release as a substitute to the original, but
only as a way to check out and learn about new music.
We absolutely do not approve of DJs or other individuals that earn
money from pirated music - Don't let them get their hands on it!
By buying the albums you like you disperse the guilt we feel by
releasing this music - Enjoy the music and be fair with the artists!
YOUR support is required to keep them financially alive and producing!
