Title: Frost - Melodica
Product review: Scandinavia has no shortage of great trip-hop, and Frost throws its weight around with the US release of MELODICA. And while it doesn't immediately make an impression, there are some valiant attempts ("Running Boy," "Amygdala"), they don't quite make it to the head of the pack. "Half-Whole" has strong hints of the Cocteau Twins throughout, and "Duo" has a romantic dreaminess to it, while "Klong" has a sax-based jazz vibe. "Sink" picks up the pace a bit. But when Royksopp step in to funk up "Endless Love," things really get moving. Mental Overdrive and Qwerty also put in their version of "Amygdala," perhaps paving the way for future production assistance? I think that'd be a step in the right direction.
