Details: Amazon.caSweden’s Magnus Zingmark and Oscar Simonsson follow their « Summer Sun » single withWaltz For Koop on one of Europe’s finest post-jazz labels. In Koop’s world, cooperation is the key; throwing bossa and the occasional electronic influence into fast and loose rhythmics while an array of vocalists complete the circle. Cecilia Stalin soars above both the glittering title track and the loungecore of « Baby »; teenager-to-watch Yukimi Nagana turns up the brightness for « Summer Sun ». Elsewhere, Earl Zinger (aka one-time Galliano frontman Rob Gallagher) provides the teachings of « Modal Mile », while Giles Peterson’s favourite folk poet Terry Callier crops up in « In a Heartbeat ». Over two years in the making, and weighing in at just over half an hour–this is an album to treasure.–Kingsley Marshall
