What they say
"Released on the Harha Askel label (who released a similar compilation featuring guitar players last year) ‘sing With Me-Music For The Human Voice’, is a collection of wonderful experimental folk songs with the accent firmly on the voice, although the music is excellent too. After the little girl vocal nursery rhyme of Lammppukello, the prolific Robert Horton (didn’t think we would get through a rumble without him did you?) enthrals us with the old Americana weirdness of ‘Fry Your Brains Out In Your Hat’, after which Alligator Crystal Moth take you further out there with the truly wonderful ‘The Mad Courier’. While these may be the most well known names on the compilation, at least to Terrascope readers, every single track is worth hearing, showing how versatile and inventive humans and their voices can be. Possibly Rumbles album of the month." (Simon Lewis / Terrascope Online)
