about

Somewhere in the woods of Sweden a dark sound is brewing in - if not a witch house - at least a witch log cabin. Haunting is an entirely appropriate cliché for these tracks that seep into your consciousness over unhurried running times. The creator of these eerie reports from the ether is Gustav Hedin from Stockholm (so probably not a log cabin!), stirring in Guitar, Synth and FX. The end result is something both organic AND other-worldly.
He records onto cassette to produce a masking of the natural melodies, like verdigri on copper, it lies on top to produce an unsettling distance for the listener – rather like the ghostly voices believed to be picked up in taped static. You have to work just that bit harder but the reward is a depth missing from more immediate tunes. Rhythmically it has elements of Kraut to help the hypnotic delivery of the tunes.

Impressed by the melancholy world of Benjamin Shaw . A lot of melody, a bit of sadness and beautiful compositions that defy any attempt at classification . Great record! Rick Pono
