reviews
"Sinnataggen:'Little Hus' (Dirty Demos) Is pretty 4 track three inch CD that makes a lovely racket out of acoustic and synthetic instruments, turns vocals and sound FX inside out and round and round to dizzying effect through itís contagious whirling sound program, out of breath pace and backwards and forwards directions.
What's good about this is it's immediacy and instinctive sounding use of the instruments at hand. The spiraling but contained views are precision point with sounds carefully and artfully placed. I can't think of a good comparison, needless to say it has a unique folky-electronica swirl that's as individual as it is charming. Single of the week contender."

"A 3" CDR by a new name, one Hamish of Rasmus Clausen who goes solo by the name of Sinnatagen. He too loves his glitches, but operates from a different angle. No field recordings or abstract electronics at the basis of his music, but popmusic. I am not sure wether he plays his own instruments, but there are fragments of guitar tinkling, drums, hums, voices and electronics.
The four pieces take their inspiration from popmusic, most notably playful, joyous music. A funny little item this one, and I wonder why not as a 7" on Static Caravan (so you can place it in some corner). Itís nice enough for that format."
