Reviews in review_ Quiet music can be loud

The latest first…

Sara Forlund’s ‘Water Became Wild’

UK based blog Nordic Music Review talk in detail about the different tracks and says “Quiet music can be loud.” They recommend to ” just turn it up really loud and let it completely take over every little corner of your house.” We hope you will do the same.
Never Enough Notes says “Sara employs light use of instrumentation (piano, trumpet) to delicately enhance the almost-still beauty of her vocal. Every song -poetic in its lyricism – has a crafted, perfectionist feel about it. This is stuff of ethereal soundtracks, pin-drop music: with breathy nuances left in post-production, the atmospheric quality of Sara’s voice is all-encompassing.”
Music Wont Save You were the first to enthusiastically review this album, in Italian.
“Brought together the pieces give a rare unified vision of the poetry in day to day life.” says Beach Sloth.

Giulio Aldinucci “Spazio Sacro”

Fluid Radio finds in this album the balance between the different regions of the brain, “And all these pieces, with their root-grasp on thought, rationale and emotion, perfectly encapsulate why this is one label to think about, listen to, as well as watch.” Thanks!
