A big festive thank you to all the artists above, you have enriched my auralness.

A fabulous debut from 21 year old Estonian Kerli Kõiv.
Definitely in my top ten of releases so far this year.
You can hear a multitude of influences on the album but she creates a totally unique sound. Superb.

Five listens though, I am adicted. This is genius.

Kerli – ‘Love is Dead’ (Directors Cut) from the album of the same name.
