Architecture in Helsinki

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

The Australian indie pop ensemble Architecture in Helsinki hails from Fitzroy, Melbourne, and counts multi-instrumentalists Cameron Bird, James Cecil, Gus Franklin, Isobel Knowles, Jamie Mildren, Sam Perry, Tara Shackell, and Kellie Sutherland among its ranks. The band's musical arsenal is even bigger than its roster, featuring instruments as diverse as analog synths and samplers, glockenspiel, tuba, clarinet, and recorder along with the more predictable drums, bass, and guitar.

#23 Seller of 2005! Stone says about them, "There are eight of them. And they make an orchestra's worth of sumptuous music, bently movening music (electronics, brass, xylophone, boy-angel vocals, enchanted schoolgirl chorals) that improves on the arctic mystery of Sigur Ros by adding the infectious thrust of the B-52's."

Pop effervescence hasn't sounded this fresh in ages.[ read more ]

Architecture in Helsinki is an eight-piece combo from Melbourne, Australia (not Finland) that makes ingenious chamber rock for the laptop age, combining guitar-bass-drums with horns, strings, male and female vocals, lots of handclaps, samples, and subtle electronics. "Architecture in Helsinki are eight men and women who join hands, hearts and a ridiculous number of instruments (thirty-one were used in recording this album!) to create overpoweringly melodic music that reflects a deep sense of joy and fratern   [ read more ]

It was in the depths of Melbournian winter that the eight-piece band nestled into their clubhouse-cum-studio, Super Melody World, armed with a veritable junk shop of instruments and perhaps too many ideas. Thus, the recording process began. Songs hung in mid-air. Cats meowed into microphones. Plagues of mice were thwarted and way too much spaghetti was eaten. By the time the new year arrived, the studio had turned into a saloon. Some 40 odd humans had passed through it, among them many local musi   [ read more ]
