When I was 10 years old my father took me to a flea market in a very small city up north in Sweden, Pitea. There was a little bit of everything being sold there: Ski equipment, comics, porcelain figurines and vinyl. It was there and then I came across Autobahn by Kraftwerk. The thing is, we didn t have a turntable at the house we stayed in, on those cold winter weeks so I had to wait until we came back home to give the record a proper spin. In my mind I played it several times and I thought it was amazing. I imagined it was music from the future. What I thought when I heard it for real? Didn t like it at all. The very same feeling I imagined Autobahn would sound like is the one I get after listening to Ishi Vu s debut on Omena. These five tracks, you could call it an album if you like, are playful, quirky, dreamy and very addictive. Like finding a new friend you know you want to keep for a very long time.
