Electric Sea Gospel: Y Gwen Ep [Vinyl 7"]

We are proud to present Desideria from Lärbro parish, Gotland! Desideria is, to say the least, a rare bird. As Debussy once described Grieg as “a pink bonbon filled with frost” — this is just as frosty and fragile, yet warm and fiercely powerful. Deeply experimental electronica with vocals in Gutnish (the original language of Gotland)... You might think of Björk, but this is something even more (if possible) idiosyncratic. Another reference could be the wonderfully strange album Illuminations by Buffy Sainte-Marie. But honestly, comparisons don’t really work here — so let’s not bother. Like electronic drizzle, like a disturbing lullaby, like frosty heat...
