Soundcloud streaming: - "Datadrift is Guinevere Molly Campbell, a d.i.y. electronic musician and vocal artist, with classical background in clarinet and violin in her youth. She very quickly adopted an improvisational composition style. And more than 10 years ago, she set out to build a personal music studio to experiment with creative sound and personal expression, in an environment free of commercial pressures. That sonic cocoon enabled her to develop a very personal style and sincerity in her music, and it's a journey that continues, even as she begins dipping her musical toes into the outside world, to share.
Datadrift's first official release, Earth | Tone | Heart, exhibits the organic textures she builds and the intuitive approach she takes in her craft. Themes of sky, forest, ocean! day and nighttime scenes!and inner and outer journeys! occur and recur!as she brings the experience of the moment, a feeling, or imagined landscapes into a detailed sensory expansion and release.
In this project, Datadrift uses a palette of voice, synthesizers, drum machines, and native flute, in varying combinations or alone, to paint each sonic image. Emotionally, there are haunting, ethereal moments that seem to mourn things lost or not quite found... tumultuous moments of darker energy! peaceful, drifting expanses of landscape! and moments of beauty and joy. As the album moves through these varying states, a sense of cathartic release evolves."

I'm not sure why this is advertised as (anti-)folk, unless you think that sounding like Steeleye Span's more rocking moments makes one folk. However, it does sound like some of those great moments, and the voice and arrangements would probably salve the hunger for a new Florence and the Machine album.
[blush]I am way, way, way behind on my MiG reading.[/blush]
Actually I'm way behind on all my reading. I recently used some sick time to try to tear through some National Geographics when I realized that I had most of 2012 still in plastic wrappers. It's a function of too many magazines x 2 kids x new job in 2011 x having to find a new house in order to keep new job, among other things, oh and watching Netflix doesn't help either.

The jury's still out for me on this one; it's good, but something just hasn't clicked for me yet.
It may make my list still though because come to think of it, I don't know that I have much more than 20 albums released this year...
