Premiere: Karin Park - Shine
Karin Park casually uploaded her new fantastic single Shine 30 minutes ago. Wonder if she was in her church in Djura, Sweden - population 364, on her wifi just loading her goodies for us. OK, enough rambling! We're absolutely in love with it and her characteristic darkness paired with warmth. Over a black forest of sounds her steely (in the best way) voice glimmers with affection. How beautiful poetry is this: even if there's no way home, even if there's nowhere to go, even when you know it's all your fault - let my love shine into the darkness of your mind. It reminds us of Sweden's superb 20th century poet Karin Boye and her mix of love and despair, light and darkness dancing in a forest of emotions and hope for a better day. This year is off to an amazing start and we cannot wait to hear material from the upcoming album. Top marks!
