imaginary trip sounds

Hess is More é o projecto do dinamarquês Mikkel Hess e traz uma electrónica que alberga influências do jazz ao trip-hop e electro-pop, passando por uma onda mais experimental. Conta na sua bagagem com os álbuns Tip top dynamo (2005), Captain Europe (2006) e Denial (2008) e ainda com bandas sonoras para peças de teatro, The soundtrack (para a peça The Wind In The Willows) e Rosenkrantz & Gyldenstjerne er Dode (para a peça com o mesmo nome). Este ano acaba de lançar Hits que nada mais é do que as músicas mais marcantes da sua carreira, ou talvez não! Deixo aqui mais umas notas sobre Hess is More que eu fui buscar aqui e mais em baixo a colectânea dos seus sucessos, Hits.
