Second Hand Orchestra
Colors
The playful instrumental Swedish DIY act The Second Hand Orchestra is back! 'Colors' is their follow up to the debut album that quickly sold out and was labelled as "If the Penguin Café Orchestra would've used old rhythm-boxes and recorded rough demos influenced by Moondog". Like the debut album the 12 tracks here all sound like homemade alternative themes to unknown tv-series. Or like sketches found on an old reel to reel machine. Leading up to 'Colors' was the three digital EP's that Second Hand Orchestra have been releasing for the last year. Now finally packed in all together, this album is pure delight. The cover artwork by US artist Nat Russell is like the cover for a coloring book. All the vinyl copies have individually hand-colored covers.
