It's been 18 months since the release of Skitlinger, but I have just discovered her and wow !! She's a Norwegian singer based in Copenhagen, with a septet behind her lovely fluted voice, the album is six songs of haunted and colorful music, intimate and comfy, full of stylistic shifts ranging from free jazz form to cinematographic soundscapes to quiet piano and old radio transmissions. And I love the Norwegian language. The kind of album they should be mentioning in Hygge books.

I love that moment in Plis Rosalin where you realize that the music isn't fading but building up. The end is King Crimsonian.
