Anamnesis - 2025 Danish Pink Cotton Candy Records 10-track LP

Anamnesis” is the second album by the Copenhagen-based experimental chamber-folk group Homesickness. Drawing inspiration from the lush, jazz-influenced improvisational spirit of the late '60s/early '70s Laurel Canyon folk rock scene (Crosby, Mitchell), British folk of the same era with its sometimes pagan-like, mystical qualities (Pentangle, Shirley Collins), the airy, dynamic traits of late-era Talk Talk, and the sonic experiments of contemporary folk innovators such as Lankum and Caroline, “Anamnesis” is a truly unique, emotionally rich, and forward-thinking release. The album consists of ten compositions that blend spirited ambient flute and string improvisations, ghostly field recordings, haunting low-key singer-songwriter folk, vibrant orchestrated folk-rock, and sudden, unexpected avant-garde outbursts. “Anamnesis” exudes a magical, organic, and free-flowing quality: With its rich instrumentation—including violin, cello, flute, clarinet, and concertina—alongside elaborate arrangements and a distinctly tranquil, serene ambiance, “Anamnesis” is a poignant and significant release that broadens the scope of contemporary folk music.
