Album Notes Koop: Oscar Simonsson, Magnus Zingmark. Additional personnel: Ane Brun, Hilde Louise Asbjornsen, Earl Zinger, Mikael Sundin, Yukimi Nagano (vocals); Mat Lindfors (mandolin); Magnus Lindgren (flute, clarinet, baritone saxophone); Nils Berg (clarinet); Karl Frid (trombone); Mattias Stahl (vibraphone, marimba); Ola Bothzen (marimba, cymbals, percussion); Martin Hoper (double bass); Dan Berglund (bass guitar). Swedish electronica duo Koop create layered, dreamy, beat-driven tracks that are often graced with jazzy instrumental loops and graceful female vocals. KOOP ISLANDS continues the group's pioneering fusion, mixing trip-hop, acid jazz, and more progressive electronica tendencies. Guest singers Ane Brun, Yukimi Nagano, Earl Zinger, and others lend their pipes to Koop's trancey, floating grooves, creating a cool, ethereal, noir-ish soundtrack that plays like a hotel sign blinking off and on through a dusky, rain-swept night.
