4 Women No Cry, Vol. 1

4 Women No Cry - Vol.1 - Background:
4 Women No Cry serves as a prelude to an annual compilation series instigated by Gudrun Gut (Monika) in order to draw further attention to the still underrepresented female view in music.
Gudrun Gut: Nowadays, very few releases by unknown artists even get to reach the shops. The idea behind this project was prompted by my re-discovery of a fantastic LP (No New York) featuring four different bands with 4-5 tracks each – the perfect way to discover new artists.”
4 Women No Cry introduces four highly creative, international artists who combine outstanding songwriting talents with electronic elements, yet often – and unjustly so - remain relatively unknown. The only selection criterion: a unique, original approach to music that is continued in sound aesthetics and production.
(Sonja Commentz)

风格:Indietronic/Folk/Lo-Fi/Post

朋友从香港阿麦书房购回了这张适合一个人独处时听的唱片。Lo-Fi风格的电子开场，慢慢溶入的多语言的吟唱。Lyrics不是这里重点，只有气氛逐渐弥漫开来。虽然是电子，但其实民谣和国际风颇重，和成员的背景多元化有关（分别来自于阿根廷，Georgia(位于Southwest Asia), 法国和Austria（奥地利)。却又并非那种浓烈的民俗曲风，而是清淡的，知性的，感性的。

个人尤其喜欢Tusia Beridze的Gorod，其中的男声和声与背景中的女声穿插出的效果让人很是着迷。
