TUNDRA is very dance-oriented, with simple, catch
lyrics. Drecker's singing voice is in fine form,
going from classical soprano to exotic oriental and
Middle Eastern flourishes at the drop of the hat. The
self-penned, produced and programmed pieces at times
don't sound out of place on a Hooverphonic, OMD or
A-ha CD, as they mix orchestral and techno-influences.
Other pieces are more leftfield. The title track is
sung in Norwegian, sounds like a rave song and
features Sami joik singing in the background. Call it
'Lapp-dance' music! WOEBEGONE is co-produced by Simon
Raymonde (ex-C.Twin) and features a string quartet.
The final song, SONG OF THE SKYLOOM, Drecker imitates
the glottal singing of Eastern Europe with lyrics from
a Native American praisesong. Drecker makes her bid
to be the Norwegian version of Bjork--with a dash of
Liz Fraser--and suceeds.
