Title:	I Know You Know
Label:	MORR MUSIC (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	MORR 038CD

2003 release. This band manages to update the kind of lo-fi indie-pop reminiscent of labels like Teen Beat or Slumberland.
        But Guther are definitely not a lo-fi outfit. The means of electronic production -- a computer, a synthesizer and
       a drum computer -- have clearly left their traces in their sound. Listening to the ten songs from Guther's debut, all of
       them display a certain immediacy, which on the one hand clearly comes from the very private setting I Know You
       Know has been recorded in. On the other hand, it also comes from the really short and spontaneous production process.

Title:	Sundet
Label:	MORR MUSIC (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.00
Catalog #:	MORR 065CD

If one squints into the sunset, contours get blurred. Things come to an end and begin in a different manner. Fugitive
       points of light play their game with the retina. If one squints into the sunset, one doesn't see clearly. And still one
       sees well enough. Sundet knows a lot of sunsets, though. Julia Guther and Berend Intelmann have
       watched them, into the Havel and the Baltic Sea, on Sweden's southern coast where the ideas for Sundet were
       brought together. "Still In This Town" is an airy, breathing track. A little later there is "Many Frames Per Moment"
       consisting of hand-claps, hook-lines and a fine tension, until its final euphoria. At last there is "Two Minds In Between,
       " with its warm, waiting, precise tact. Julia Guther's voice emerges from sound-spirals. Flutes, electronic bits and
       pieces, a harmonica, appearing and staying even if they have already disappeared. Bass lines and guitar pickings
       interweave in a friendly way. All that is there appears only together.
