Mixed and mastered by Jann Skoglund Voss at Space Age Productions. Cover design by Henning Cedmar Brandstedt. www.henning-cedmar-brandstedt.se Once upon a time some friends moved to a house made of, and surrounded by, trees. Situated deep in the Swedish woodlands the house is a hidden haven; a place where if no one speaks one hears only the sound of birds, a river and the wind in the trees. There is also the sound of music.... House of Trees is a band lead by Rob Coe and Djamila Skoglund Voss. As a songwriter Rob explores, hunts and gathers perfectly the myriad moods of life: its thoughts, its dreams, its places and its people: all playing a role in his often mythical and fairytale like songs. The intoxicating Singer, and magical woodland lady of the night, Djamila Skoglund-Voss, joins him in the exploration, arrangements and performance of the music. On ‘Painted Gold’ the duo is joined by violinist extraordinaire ‘Helena Sköld’ who acts almost as a second voice . 'The atmosphere and emotion of their music is like a good home: it’s warm and cozy on the inside, but outside the wind and the dark are knocking on the door' "The songs are so masterfully constructed they draw on supreme bodies of other 'worlds', much the same as Cohen, Cave, Lord Aunch, Jim Yamouridis, or even Tom Waits. Like a descent into the frigid northern lands... Sustained by the beautiful voice of Djamila Skoglund Voss'. Rating: 5 ***** (Paulo Miguel Viana - Ora escuittttaaa!!)
