The Tiny
uneasy minimalist folk
The awkward emotive voice of Ellekari Larsson rattles inside your head. You question what beauty sounds like. A piano and cello creep in with slow trepidation. The song’s lyrics strive for a warm emotional intimacy, but yet the instrumentation and vocals feel almost frigid and aloof. This raw power of this gem, ‘Closer’, hit me immediately when I sampled it from Fat Planet and continues to addictively reel me in.
An intimately disorienting ballad from a trio in Stockholm.

It’s my first to touch this voice. I like it very much. Thank you.
BTW,your blog is so beautiful. I will collect it and always enjoy it.
Thanks again!
Btw- you can see more about this Scandinavian chamber-rock group (I shouldn’t have called them folk) at their website:

wow, this is really beautiful. sounds a bit beth gibbons-esque… thanks for introducing them to me. :]
Lovely track – and what a delicate voice. Can I commend you on your good taste – every post you write has excellent music. You are swelling the coffers of Amazon.co.uk with my money.
Thank you sooo much for posting this. “Closer” is one of the best, if not the best song I’ve heard all year.
Quite wonderful. Thanks for the MP3.
Wow — The Tiny is amazing. I’m a big fan of bands like CocoRosie and this is the same genre and it’s aweseome.
