Swedish label will be celebrating their 10th anniversary this year by releasing a 2xLP compilation featuring new tracks from almost every artist that has even been involved with the label, including Parken, Pavan, Marions, The Chrysler, Sir Eric Beyond, Existensminimum, Hundarna från Söder, Rigas and more. Expect a November release.
Marions are a definite sleeper act. Like labelmates The Chrysler, this is elegant pop music of a more dreamy variety. No need to beat you over the head with insistent hooks, rather they let their music slip in under the door and tiptoe around the room. Album opener "Wonder lady" drifts with the ease of a lullaby, but also lilts like a sea shanty. A sound that's easy to like, but it may take a few listens before opinions move upwards from merely "nice." Follow their example, take your time.
