Olen'K - Silently Noisy

Olen'K is a French group with a few years behind them. After the debut EP 'Half Asleep', which by the way was self produced, comes 'Silently Noisy' that's their first album. The music is a great mix of many different styles and influences which gives the music a special feeling. Feels like a mix of Enigma and the Icelandic singer Björk.

The mix of digital instruments and exotic analogue instruments plus the song gives the music a certain sound that flows through the whole record. It think it's really good music and it's a interesting way of letting analogue instruments completing digital sounds capes.

I must say that this record is really great, it has its own charm and I think that Olen'K is a group that can reach very far. The ability to create interesting sound flows and is important for musicians and when listening to this I never found it boring.
