Matt R. Weaver Today in the Belmont location of Reckless Records in Chicago I heard Everything Lay Still and struggled not to let it drag me to tears. it has been a rough year, but this track aligns with my life and gives hope. So there's that.

Annie Poca I remember discovering Colleen in early 2000's with 'everyone alive wants answers'. Such special aesthetic, sound and atmosphere. It's really nice to rediscover their music on bandcamp. The Golden Morning breaks is really strong, incredibly beautiful and dreamy (and that art cover.)

ms-antipodes I'll Read You a Story got me through a bad patch of suicidal ideation. I've probably listened to it a hundred times or more. Forever indebted. Favorite track: I'll Read You a Story.

about

My second album, released in 2005 on The Leaf Label, in which I totally abandoned sampling other people’s records: I recorded my old trusted classical guitar and my newly-acquired instrument collection (cello, zither, music boxes, ukulele, chimes…) in the living-room of my now slightly bigger flat in Paris, except the glass harmonicon on “The Heart Harmonicon” which was recorded by its owner, John Cavanagh, in Glasgow. I am originally a guitar player and the move from samples back to real music instruments was pivotal, as it seemed to open up infinite possibilities. This was also the first album of mine for which Italian artist Iker Spozio created the artwork – a collaboration that goes on to this day.
