Sanges Sweet


This Camille record, 'Music Hole' is growing on me more and more every day. She has the most powerfully angelic voice and the a capella and minimalist arrangements serve as the perfect backdrop for that instrument of hers. It's easily one of the most original sounding albums I've heard all year. Every time I spin it I hear another reason to love it.

The Music Hole


Here is another one I found by scouring year end 'Best Of' lists compiled by people who are far hipper than me. Camille's 'The Music Hole' record was on one or two such lists, so I tracked down the record and gave it a spin. Not at all like what I usually listen to, but still SO interesting. The French singer/songwriter has an absolutely incredible voice, and uses it to wail over very sparse a capella and electronic backdrops.

This song that I am sharing is a great example of what's on the record. Hang in there through the odd beginning, it really takes off, trust me.
