5.0 out of 5 starsA beautiful, diverse collection
By Patrick on January 25, 2013
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
I listen to this CD all the time. I remember the first listen and how happy it made me feel, reading the booklet and learning about the artists. It's electrifying. Like most of the Rough Guides that I've heard, this has a lot of variety to it, but there are common threads binding these songs together. It is all contemporary music, it typically has a bright, minimalist, experimental flavor to it. Some jazz influences are heard as well as odd time signatures.
The instrumentation is diverse and interesting, but I think most listeners will agree, the vocals are the centerpiece of practically every song. The unique vocal melodies and harmonies are often chilling and powerful at the same time. These artists really know how to leave their mark. The bonus disc by Kardemimmit is lush. If you're in the mood for a more intimate look at Scandinavian music, these lilting folk tunes are very soothing. It also includes some overtone singing. I'm inspired to visit some of the countries of this region and seek out the bands.
It's that good.

5.0 out of 5 starsWhat does darkness + cold = ? Fantastic music!!

We went to Chicago and saw Kardemimmit in concert at the 2015 World Music Festival. I found this CD with a bonus CD of just them. While I really like the Kardemimmit CD I absolutely LOVE the other CD with the various artists. It is absolutely superb! Scandinavia is now on our 'must do' list for the music alone.

Wow! Just wow!
