beautiful album...and this guy is apperantly only 17 years old...quite amazing. it's acoustic guitar and electronica mixture. very melancholic but non depressing music...some call it folktronica if that means something to you. it's noisy at times (fennesz), but full of beautiful melodies...
official site he's got some samples there...
pitchfork review
anyone else likes it?

i didn't know he was a member..people that get their albums out usually stop posting for some reason so i doubt we'll get to see him around :)
jivverdicker, yeah, real nice selection of different sounds on songs..no noise in songs where it wouldn't fit..same goes for guitar..
favourite songs: -man from the anthill (quite alike fennesz and time hecker) -daylight and delight -dusty -crapstone (first minute and 15 secons are brilliant) -a little secret -screen love, space, and the time man -tattltalent (encore)

you don't seem to be too addicted to this one...
judging on that metalfiler site we're not the only ones to like this music. i've listened to it on repeat for the whole night...well, before i went to sleep and when i woke up :) real nice!

The Vermont native's debut album, Handwriting, sounds as if it lingers underneath a lone, orange phosphorescent streetlight in the vacant lot outside a gated, suburban community.
HAHAHAH. I hate Pitchfork.

"In other words, the album's "folktronic" elements are ornaments rather than qualities that can walk on their own. But the kid still returns with Polaroids of his adolescence and sexual frustrations to tack on his bedroom corkboard and lament over-- red-eyed, backstabbing girlfriends and all."
oh my.

I saw the review of "handwriting" in the wire too, it seemed pretty positive. Confrabulations man, that would be a dream come true for me.

Khonnor, you should either make your vocals more distinct or get rid of them entirely, IMHO. Nice guitar work!

caught a piece on him on swedish television this weekend. i had this nagging feeling of remembering his name and having clicked some links that pointed to his work. it's excellent stuff.

I heard shoegazing the first time it wafted in and out, still 10 out of 10 for waiting for relatively recent sub-cultural genres to go out of vogue before adopting them as your own.
