Following on from the duo's widely acclaimed first full length collaboration Ghosts of Gold (Discus 37CD, 2009), which was essentially an album of poetry plus electronic soundscapes, FiNiN shifts toward extended jazz and electronic song forms and widens the sonic palette to include a larger group of musicians together with an emphasis on rhythm.
The result is an adventurous and beautiful suite of 17 musically and thematically linked songs spread over 2 CDs.
"From solo albums such as sunset Glow to collaborative projects with SME and pianist husband Keith, Julie Tippetts has long established herself as one of the most original vocalists in improvised music.
This latest offering sees her paired with laptop artists and multi-instrumentalist Martin Archer together with guests including guitarist Chris Sharkey of Acoustic Ladyland / Trio VD and improv drummer Charlie Collins.....There is something of the mature fairytale in Tales of FiNiN's dislocated, disconcerting sound.
It's adventurous stuff and gloriously pigeon-hole resistant: this is both more abstract and broadminded than conventional folktronica.
It's a deeply haunting record that, to borrow a claim from Archer's myspace site, sounds like nothing with which you are already familiar." - Marcus O'Dair, Jazzwise (FOUR STARS)
"Tippetts [sings with] rich tone and soulfulness...this is a one-off for listeners willing to hang up all preconceptions about free jazz, noise, collages, meaning and language, electronics or pretty much anything else." - John Fordham, Guardian
"Enchanting and enchanted" - Alessandro Achilli, Radio Musical Perspectives
