MP3 Sarah Fimm - A Perfect Dream
Groovy, Dark, Ambient, trippy electronic-alternative rock
13 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Psychedelic, ELECTRONIC: Trip Hop
Details:
"Be Like Water" launches the odyssey that is A Perfect Dream, a sensual feast of electronic leanings and hypnotic atmospheres that is brewed with alternative-leaning gothic melodies. Singer/songwriter/pianist Sarah Fimm is
already drawing Tori Amos comparisons: Her phrasing strongly mimics Amos'' on the big-band, scat-happy "Spit Trap Ghetto" and "Alien Boys." But her tone
more closely matches Sarah McLachlan''s ethereal breathiness at its finest,
and Fimm''s compositions (interspersed with spoken word, sax, trumpet, and
hand percussion) innovate instead of imitate. Lyrically, they tackle themes
like the loss of love and life on the dramatic "Virus," "Smoke," and "Shadows
and Dust." Given that this is only her second album, Fimm is no doubt ripe
with possibility. This is one of the most enchanting discoveries of the year.
