Agnes Obel

Post by Tin Bird »

I just discovered this artist today...apparently her latest album is her third(!) Reminds me of Kate Bush and maybe Haydn Thorpe...

Wonderful music. My wife is a great fan an has all her albums (some of them as a gift from you know who :wink: ). There's also a Late Night Tales-CD which she compiled: https://latenighttales.co.uk/products/p ... agnes-obel
Her music is often used in series like Cardinal.

The melody in this track (Island of Doom) actually reminds me a bit of the melody in the Sylvian track Do You Know Me Now?

She's great... If you haven't already check out Susanne Sundfør as well, esp. her 'The Silicone Veil' album.
