FJORDNE “Charles Rendition” recommended at Norman Records

FJORDNE “Charles Rendition” gets a 4 out of 5 review and is this week’s recommended album at Norman Records (UK).

“Never heard the last album by Fjordne, and I may never do as it has now sold out. Released on the little Singapore-based imprint Kitchen, it was apparently built from “floaty twinkly pastoral electronica” according to Phil. I’m not convinced I can get away with describing this new collection as that. Its ingredients are situated more along the line of downbeat lounge jazz, reflective ivory-tinkling & atmospheric electronica with dense, evocative layers of subtle samples & dynamic sprinklings of incidental sound-art that combine to enhance an already quite moody & interesting sound! For lovers of wistful jazzy downtempo electronica with a unique, progressive edge. Nice 6″ square package with intriguing inserts especially, as always from this lovingly run boutique imprint!!”
