Alla Sagor Har Ett Slut

簡介。。。。。。
The myth of Sagor & Swing tells that they are children of nature that grew up in the forest. That they at an early age built their first instruments and isolated from the noise of civilization invented a music of their own. What we know for sure, however, is that they make wonderful organ music and have been doing this for some time now. This is their third album, “Allt hänger samman”.

The woods have thickened. The melodies have become more intricate and the idyllic scenes now have a darker tone. One slips away on excursions in the faintest sounds through passages where the organ is a tone generator built to recreate the sounds of the forest - the wind, the singing of birds, the creaking of roots.

As soon as the majestic introduction “Återkomsten” begins, one senses that something is going on. In “Lövverk” echoes are heard of Kraftwerk and their endless ostinati and the final “Alla sagor har ett slut” is a magnificent, minimalistic bookending. The moods that are summoned in between the songs keeps one helplessly in the world of Sagor & Swing.

Their previous two albums “Orgelfärger” and “Melodier och fåglar” are both small gems deserving wider recognition.

我的碎碎唸。。。。。。評價指數:8.3/10
節點中這樣描述Sagor&Swing的音樂:「在過度感官刺激與資訊轟炸的年代,很多人雖然想安靜一下,其實卻無法忍受真正的無聲。這張『沒什麼的音樂』(nothing music),正能滿足那種渴求。」就是這樣一類音樂,一直播放著既不覺得寂寞,也不影響心情和手邊的忙碌。所以經常能夠聼到這樣的音樂,是現代都市人心靈的一方很好的撫慰劑。
去豆瓣上看看。。。。。。
