***NOW AVAILABLE ON VINYL!!! Trading under the pseudonym ASS—ANDREAS SÖDERSTRÖM SOLO—for more than a decade, he has been the hitherto unknown man of Swedish pop, having played with the likes of electro-pop priestess JENNY WILSON, digital folk stalwarts TAPE, offbeat folk-pop minstrel BLOOD MUSIC, and TAKEN BY TREES, the latest incarnation of former CONCRETES singer VICTORIA BERGMAN. Söderström plays all of the instruments found on this quietly intoxicating 10-track record, the follow-up to his astonishingly assured, eponymous debut. My Get Up And Go Just Got Up And Went is largely a non-vocal outing, augmented at various points by electronic gurgles, horns and an accordion. Söderström channells a hypnotic style which is at times reminiscent of folk legends such as Bert Jansch, John Renbourn and John Fahey, his crisp compositions nevertheless have an ultra-modernist edge to them, digital elements seeping through and sounding perfectly at home, but with a softly engaging feel rather than the clinical hum of technology. subtle intonation adding a sweetness and warmth to proceedings.
