Team Dreams
is the collaborative album of
Sin Fang
,
Sóley
, and
Örvar Smárason
of
múm
and
FM Belfast
. It combines the individual strengths of the three acclaimed musicians, and blends folk sensibilities with futuristic pop beats. Imagine you commit to writing and releasing a song as fast as possible within a few days. You would never believe the immense beauty and intriguing shapes of these 12 songs are the result of said silly idea, a fun project basically. "I remember driving to the countryside just after finishing my last album," Sin Fang recollects how
Team Dreams
came about. "My album took a really long time to make and some of the songs on the album were two years old. I thought: 'Wouldn't it be fun to write a song and release it the day after?' So I talked to Örvar and Sóley and we all agreed to make a song in three days every month." The three share quite a history together, as well as with Morr Music. Years ago, Sóley joined Sin Fang's indie folk band
Seabear
, before both started out solo and regularly featured on each other's albums. They were surely inspired by Iceland's electronica icons múm, co-founded by Örvar Smárason. For this record, everyone brought their distinct sound and musical ideas to the table. There is Sóley's ethereal presence and fantasy-tinged songscapes, Sin Fang's ability to craft powerful pop anthems, and Örvar's experience with translating emotions into heartwarming sound. Songs like "Tennis" wander between bonfire intimacy and slow-paced beats that echo cutting-edge R&B and club productions by artist like
Jam City
and
Kelela
. The album is filled with this kind of calm eclecticism, but also leaves room for the pureness of piano ballads like "Wasted". Although the album might sound quite seamless, like a well-planned affair, it certainly wasn't for the trio. Sóley says for her it was about freedom and taking a welcome risk: "I thought the idea of not being stuck to one sound or genre was really interesting. I think differently when I make a song for this project and it has taught me a lot." This "monthly dose of subtle mayhem", as Örvar called the songs, was destined to become a bigger whole. CD version comes in a digipak.
