Kid Koala feat. Emilíana Torrini
Music To Draw To: Satellite
ARTS & CRAFTS
his lyrics tell a story of discovery & loss, based on the Mars 1 Mission: you can hear the sense of weightlessness, isolation & wonder of space in the legato phrasing; & torrini’s voice is as ethereally soulful as ever.
his 5th solo studio album features his first vocal collaboration / first time as lyricist & first instrumental composition. Icelandic singer-songwriter Emilíana Torrini features on this first installment of the ‘Music To Draw To’ collaborative series. “brimming with little sonic details that remind us of Koala’s ability to craft evocative sounds: scratches that swoosh past like gusts of wind, noises that clatter like machinery, garbled chatter that sounds like it’s being beamed in from a faraway satellite” – pitchfork.
