SHREM'S LATE MONDAY NIGHT SESSIONS: "A COWARDS CONFESSION" - Thomas Gaist

Some of you may remember the hypnotising "Blue Bird" by Thomas Gaist aka Thom Catt, a track taken from "Sound of Copenhagen vol. 10" which I was raving about last winter... Well the mysterious Danish singer is back now with another stellar, eerily beautiful one of a kind song "A Cowards Confessions" which flawlessly combines retro and future with its unpredictable mélange of old-fashioned vocal harmonies, unpredictable melody twists and productional curiosities. Building up from just a few sublime bleeps, the song finishes with a whole multi-layered wall of sound of electronic finesse. It fascinates and thrills me to come across music redefining eclecticism and denying any genre-classification just like Thomas Gaist's surprising "A Cowards Confessions".

SHREM'S LATE MONDAY NIGHT SESSIONS: "BLUE BIRD" - Thom Catt

I can't fully grasp or explain my feelings for these 3 astonishingly intriguing minutes of music... Lying somewhere between Angelo Badalamenti's atmospheric production, David Bowie's hypnotic vocals and the enigma of Colder with a whole bunch of additional unclassifiable elements, this sombre piece of Danish electronica left me stunned about an hour ago... The opening track from the latest installment in the superb series of compilations that is "Sound of Copenhagen". All I know about this mysterious artist is what I've learned from his Soundcloud so far. His name is Thomas Gaist. He's based in Odense, Denmark. "Blue Bird" - a goosebump-causing late night masterpiece...
