The new EP from Scottish songwriter Alec Bowman_Clarke goes deep, setting vulnerable lyrics to gentle melodies & stripped-back arrangements. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 30, 2021
Alec Bowman perfectly captures the dark soil under the pastoral world of British folk with this collection of melancholy originals. Bandcamp New & Notable May 12, 2020
supported by 37 fans who also own “Niinkuin minäkin”
This is mostly minimal and ambient electronica, with avant-garde and jazz leanings. I say mostly because there are a few strategically placed, busier DnB-esque tracks and sections. There's some nice interplay between programmed and acoustic percussion throughout, with Olavi playing on the kit.
As an aside, he also has a band, Oddarrang, and is the drummer in the Alexi Tuomarila Trio, both of which I recommend, though they are of a distinctly different character than this, and each other for that matter. Deidre House
