Pomperipossa Sweden Vinyl & CDs

Review: To name your drone project Drone is an obvious power move, one that can only be backed up by quality music in order for it to work. Such is the case on the latest LP from this Swedish ambient music outfit - The Long Song - which bedazzles and spine-tingles with its intense sense of utter-nostalgic escape. Opening with unmistakable snake-rattles and lowercase foley bloops ('Into The Electric'), this project slowly unfurls into something much more intense and affecting than its exposition might entail, with every melodic moment from 'Inarina' to 'Fay, Ghost' mired in boatyard noise, radio tuning noise and reversy-sampled undulations.
