Release Notes:
Imagine the scene. ItÆs a lazy Sunday afternoon during a long hot
summer. YouÆre hanginÆ out with your homies in the hazy sunshine, the
smell of freshly cut grass sweetening the air. As you lie there rolling
a blade of straw between your teeth you realise thereÆs something
missing - this perfect afternoon needs a soundtrack. You need music to
suit the mood but your Nan has borrowed all your chill out mix CDs and
you have far too much good taste and self respect (you are after all
reading Artrocker) to listen to something as tedious as James Blunt or
Coldplay. So what do you do? Well you could do a lot worse than cue up
this long player from Icelandic duo Feldberg.
æDonÆt Be A StrangerÆ features bluesy, lounge style vocals from
chanteuse Rosa Isfeld floating over the top of lush instrumentation
ranging in styles from the electronica infused æHouse of FunÆ to the
folksy æFarewellÆ. Being a real sucker for call and response style
boy-girl duets, it was a joy to hear gorgeous forthcoming single
æDreaminÆ ("will you be my everything/IÆll treat you like a real
king"), but itÆs all good, thereÆs no filler here.
Rosa and band mate Eberg (already a successful artist in his own right
in Europe) have created a cracking collection of songs. If thereÆs any
justice in the world this stunning debut will be this yearÆs soundtrack
to the summer.
Feldberg release their debut album æDonÆt Be A StrangerÆ on 11th April
through the label Smalltown America.
