the bride of dynamite by rio en medio

I spent four hours in the studio carving through pages of magazines until I had created little topographical facsimiles in layers of fading pages of Time and Life. Collage and sculpture, but deconstructed and considered through mass media and popular culture. I might've been trying to copy Danielle Stech Homsy's methods, trying to get close to what she manages to do on The Bride of Dynamite. Here, she uses a variety of different instruments to explore and expand the sonic space that encompasses her new folk aesthetic, and through a keen lyrical precision carves an enchanting relief. For years this album has always been my point of departure to an imaginary place with an abundance of valleys.

"Mostly one wee guy, sometimes two wee guys from Glasgow, Scotland making little songs on guitar and computers, with singing and glockenspiel and a bunch of keyboards. Sometimes electronic, sometimes acoustic folk." --last.fm
