Kate Havnevik's debut, Melankton, is a fantastic demonstration of her ability to craft memorable pop hooks in the context of glacial electronica. As well, she displays the capabilities of her voice beautifully, floating gracefully within captivating sonic atmospheres, grabbing the listener's ear and never letting go. From the sparse opener, through the robust pop songs, and all the way to the full, rounded, and utterly stunning closer, Kate not only shows extraordinary potential but a true realization of her talents that makes Melankton a fascinating and enriching debut. Go grab a copy, and join me in eagerly awaiting her next release.
