Sexy, psychedelic and soothing, the music of this seven-member UK collective provides an esoteric, often haunting soundtrack that's perfect for … well, having sex, spacing out or simply relaxing. Magicfolk began as an acoustic trio back in 2003, and that's how long some of the songs on this debut have fermented. Eventually adding bass, drums, lead guitar and synths while expanding its membership, Magicfolk have drawn comparisons to Clannad, White Willow and Mostly Autumn. The music here leans toward the mellow end of that spectrum, however, with the sweet and dusty voices of three women singing over Andy Hines' stunning, David Gilmour-like guitar work. The effect is both beautiful and chilling.
