Architecture in Helsinki

A hyperactive explosion of tropical percussion and neon synths. Jittery, maximalist indie pop that trades chamber-folk whimsy for sweaty, high-energy dance-rock.

July 28, 2007

Find on Amazon

A hyper-caffeinated, neon-hued celebration of rhythmic chaos and art-pop eccentricity.

Moments Worth Listening For
The relentless, polyrhythmic percussion breakdown in Heart It Races that feels like a street parade.
The sudden shift into a jagged, new-wave synth riff halfway through Hold Music.
The chaotic layering of multiple vocalists shouting the hook on Feather in a Baseball Cap.
