Tobias Borelius - Du känner mig för väl, farväl (2011)
/Indie pop, Indietronica, Poptronica, Electronic pop, Singer-songwriter, Acid pop, Lo-fi/
Comment: this is a relatively short-running, in Swedish sung album. At these 8 tracks may be detected for two tendencies. Sprawling acoustic pop is imbued with a slight touch of electronica, and on the other side it is created with the intention for more electronic-driven ditties. At times it used to be more restraint, sometimes more sunshiny and charming, however, exploiting symphonic keyboards, New Wave-ish synth thudding and effects. At Smaragdgröna Parker is exploited 8-bit/tracker music-alike cadences as if falling to a numerous of dull-coloured smithereens. The favorite of mine is Arkitekten (featuring Lotta Wenglèn), a gloomy gem.
