Moony, compelling melodies, a gentle, velvety, soulful voice from Sweden and inserted unobtrusive pieces of Drum'n'Bass, results in LAINE's non-categorical melange. The outcome of the harmonious symbiosis from electronics, jazz and pop results in more than the sum of their individual parts. Kristina Lindberg's goose skin producing voice and the cautious rhythmic sound network are hypnotic and force you to listen consistently to the ten well-elaborated songs.
The Austrian-Swedish formation exists since the year 2001, formed by the Austrian producers Clemens and Stefan PICHLER as well as the Swedish singer Kristina LINDBERG. Christian WENDT an upright-bass player did not only affect the band structure, together they developed a new reduced and open sound, which soon became the unmistakable brand name of LAINE. A sound that allows space, which can emerge over and anon and also lets us discover some new facets in the sound universe of LAINE.
Kristina Lindberg, Clemens and Stefan Pichler were all strongly affected in their musical socialisation by jazz, which is noticeable in a unpretentious way. After listening you will hear that pop as well as electronic music have affected their sound identity. Here you notice that the tracks are not ever lasting loops that keep repeating themselves, rather fascinating and even slightly structured compositions.
A music for people, who expect more than a steaming freestyle-mix that begins somewhere and nowhere expires - an affair of the heart!
