Albums of 2016 - 32. CARLA DEL FORNO - YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE

32. CARLA DEL FORNO - YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE


On Halloween I played this spooky, eerie music while walking by the canal and through a dark bridge and I got reeled in, all hypnotized. It didn't exactly scare the shit out of me, merely intrigued me as I always look for at least a feeling of chill. Not going out to party for Halloween again - not after last year when I had a wallet stolen as I dressed as a tampon.

A really great thing I just read is that this is a debut. I had no idea before just checking Metacritic. As the opener "Italian Cinema" swirls in, soon to follow is the gloriously lo-fi "Fast Moving Cars." It's massively urban even though I just told you I tried to get Haloween-ee-ode in the countryside.

The above two paragraphs were written at midnight after a static night in front of el-lapito, my laptop and I was going brain-dead. Or maybe I was just entranced by this amazing piece of introductory work that will lead on into a love affair with urban witchcraft.
