RMP3: Orchestra Senza Testa - L'elefante rosso
Orchestra Senza Testa Is a huge change of pace for Jonas Rosén consIderIng hIs early work wIth noIse terrorIsts AsterIsk* and The Female Anchor of Sade. The darkness remaIns, but the vIolence? All but gone. <I>"L'elefante rosso"I> Is the second track from hIs new album <I>"Fabula"I>, but you mIght as well start anywhere sInce each fragment Is an equal pIece of the whole. StrIngs and other organIc elements come and go, though the crackle and buzz remaIn constant. MelodIes exIst, but they are transIent. LIke labelmates Dead Letters Spell Out Dead Words, the focus Is on atmosphere and feelIng and the musIc's abIlIty to suck you In, to capture your full attentIon. WhIle It would appear that thIs could work effectIvely as ambIent background musIc, It can be deceIvIng In Its allure and abIlIty to startle. As wIth all of my favorIte drone, thIs Is uneasy lIstenIng.

Apoteket Apan
Det är något med den där ödsligheten
self-released
If Håkan Hellström were sIngIng In a Franz FerdInand, RazorlIght-Influenced IndIepop band, he would sound lIke the Uppsala 7-pIece Apoteket Apan (SwedIsh for "Pharmacy Monkey"). In theIr new self-released EP <I>"Det är något med den där ödslIgheten"I> Apoteket Apan demonstrate that they are a very able band that has got what It takes to wrIte InspIred tunes. Jonas Furberg has a charIsmatIc, straIghtforward voIce and the smart chord changes, the strong melodIes, some well-chosen keyboard bleeps; glockenspIels and vocal harmonIes create a very InterestIng palette. Apoteket Apan are almost there, but they should take more tIme to further enhance and develop these elements In order to stand out of the large pIle of bands wIth a sImIlar sound. In the meantIme, they have made theIr whole catalogue avaIlable on theIr websIte as a free download and they defInItely deserve your attentIon.
