We want more Slaraffenland’s new album, Slow Waves, out now and FREE
We started by folding paper, and now we’re folding time. It’s been over five years since we released Slaraffenland’s We’re On Your Side, and a cool eight since their Hometapes debut, Private Cinema, declared the Copenhagen-based five-piece’s transcendence of any national, musical, or emotional border. They were at our very first Friend Island. They toured with Efterklang, Akron/Family, and Bowerbirds. They made a film with Vincent Moon, in addition to being the climactic stars in Moon’s time capsule capture of the Hometapes House in Austin during SXSW 2009. We’ve been in a long-distance relationship for the ages with Christian, Mike, Jeppe, Niklas, and Bjørn. So, after five years of building their own studio -- and their own families -- five thousand miles away from where we first met, Slow Waves landed like the world’s heaviest and prettiest postcard.
And we’re sending it on to you. Slaraffenland is giving Slow Waves away for free in its digital form, in addition to offering an LP version (limited to 250 copies worldwide). There’s no reason not to keep in touch.
