| Sivu feat. Marika Hackman - I Hold |
This is exactly the kind of tune
that my teenage music collection is full of on CD single or 7"....or the
rare cassette tape. 'I Hold' is yours for free, you lucky devils, and it's a
delicately playful piece of music that reminds me of artists like Emiliana
Torrini, Ani Di Franco or 12 Rounds. There is a sinister edge to this tune as
well which is lurking in the shadows, threatening but never quite coming out to
show its face in the full light. Marika Hackman's voice has a clenched teeth
menace to it as it drifts out atop the delicate acoustic guitar, bass drones
and processed beats. Sivu seems to be on tour supporting the great and the good
this year so get and catch this stuff live if you can, it's sure to be a
mesmerising experience.
