muffin


"A lovely collection of bedroom-recorded folk-pop from Japan's Muffin. Gossamer fragile and tinged with melancholy, this is just gorgeous ~ gentle harmonies, acoustic guitar, melodica and keyboard. her favorite songwriters: Syd Barrett, Judee Sill, Elliott Smith, Sibylle Baier." boa melody bar


amor eterno, larga vida, alabada sea...seguro que no soy la única que esperaba como agua de mayo nuevas canciones de nuestra japonesa con alma brasileña, y corazón italiano y finés, favorita. un disco bonito siempre es un disco bonito, y last apple lo es como ninguno. sencillo y bonito. especialmente si recuerdas con cariño tane, folklore y grapes, y si te gustan ruth garbus, jennifer castle, tender buttons, lau nau, cabinet of natural curiosities, pantaleimon, sibylle baier y las canciones de stan getz & astrud gilberto. le acompaña mattia coletti y casi puedo imaginarlos sentados uno frente al otro, sonriéndose y arropándose mientras tocan sus guitarras...y nosotros dejándonos envolver por ellos. nada de lo que pueda decir haría justicia a nanas, que no canciones, como 'soft sounds' o 'late winter'


de regalo tres 'samples' de tres versiones como tres soles:

ruth garbus


"lovely set of guitar/voice studies from vermonter ruth garbus, reminding of kath bloom’s sides (both w/ & w/o loren connors) & linda perhacs’ effortlessly breathy “parallelograms”. but then again i imagine most will compare the omnipresent patina of tape-hiss & chiming guitar figures to liz “grouper” harris; fans of whom will most certainly want to investigate herein" mimaroglu

"ruth garbus used to be in a band called Feathers,  she still plays with kyle t. in a band called happy birthday, she lives with c. weisman in brattleboro & her sister is merrill Tune-yards.

is she a singer/songwriter? folk musician? chanteuse? torch singer? jazz vocalist? new age artist? tropicalia? early music?. im not sure what we should call it. maybe all of the above. well it doesn't really matter anyhow because we think you'll think ruth's new album is super good." autumn
