Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell

Marynka Nicolai is a Russian-born singer whose record is an utter delight. She has some of Bjork’s restless experimenting but her own spirit.

“Lucky” is a bass-heavy playful little song with nice relaxed vocals.

“Navsegda” sung in Russian is a dreamy track in the vein of “Vespertine” but more subtly funky.

“The Rain Of Love” is a sweet, filmic song that paints vivid pictures in your mind.

The quirky title “Fish with Sunglasses” hides a melancholy song.

Marynka’s record is a special thing.
