4.0 out of 5 stars Skyphone- Avellaneda LP Review (7.5/10), 14 Mar 2008
By experimusicdotcom "experiment with music" (united kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Growing up in the rainy marshlands of southern Jutland, childhood friends Keld Dam Schmidt (modular synths and guitars), Thomas Holst (bass and atmospherics), and Mads Bødker (analogue synths, samplers, toy instruments) have joined forces to create a sparkling and understated tapestry of atmospheric melodica. Occupying the space between Four Tet, Bonobo, Air and Efterklang; Skyphone deliver a charming and all instrumental brand of folktronica with all the rich detail and sonic refinement that one would expect of a band on Rune Grammofon. `Avellaneda' is Skyphone's follow up to their warmly received debut album `Fabula' and with this new release, Skyphone further develop their ideas into a seamless blend of acoustic and electronic elements.

Throughout `Avellaneda' Subtly crafted glitchscapes crackle and pop below the melodic surface whilst synths and strings join in playful harmony to create frayed Scandinavian folk-inspired melodies. On `All Is Wood' one is immediately struck by the beefiness of the sound. Sub-melodies ebb and flow whilst swirling sounds scatter haphazardly over warm oozing's of bass until a gorgeous lead melody joins proceedings and swells towards infinity. The warm and rich production of the intricately plucked strings resonate in your head long after the song has elapsed. The alt.folk ideology is fully embraced on `Schweizerhalle' which sees overlapping acoustic guitars creep darkly over a playful bed of digital soundscapes. Elsewhere, the sweeping frequency-manipulated synthscapes of the Philip Glass-esque `Quetzal Cubicle' hypnotise whilst the clustered and out-of-sync melodies of `Tweed/Puck's Dye' keep the listeners cerebral fully engaged. `Leafchisel' has an Indian raga-esque quality underpinning the slow yet sparkling instrumentation before closer `Yetispor' finishes on a somber note thanks to slow-motion combination of reverberating drones and glitchy instrumentals.

The lush production techniques are a key component of the album giving each sound its own space to flutter freely and three-dimensionally. Just like a crackling fire, instruments spark and flicker intricately over the icey soundscapes to accurately recreate an image of the trio playing in a cosy home studio in the heartland of a rain-battered Jutland. Ultimately, `Avellaneda' is the place where intelligent and captivating arrangements meet with delicacy and restraint to create a downtempo yet shimmering slice of heart-warming melodica.(RM)


For fans of: Four Tet, Bonobo, Air, Junkboy, Svalastog, Efterklang
