Fiktion’s mixture of guitars and electronics can get addicting. Fiktion is the brainchild of Gustaf Erik Lundh. His music can be ambient yet intellectually stimulating, slightly poppish yet experimental and certainly relaxing to listen to. He has quite a bit of music to listen to; 3 full albums and three EPs. I decided to concentrate on the full albums and found them to be very enjoyable. Morfint is the latest release (2007) and is full of odd and beautiful sounds of a down-tempo and ambient nature. Gryning & Skymning is also from 2007 and quite similar in its music. I especially like the opening “Det Kanns” which has a reverberating guitars dreamingly floating over a series of electric pops and glitches. Finally, Leftovers features orphan tracks from 2005 to 2007. The quality is little less than the first two but there are still some splendid moments. These albums will please those people into a sparse ambient sound and calming but intelligent music.

All three albums are available in album zips as VBR MP3s (around 192kbps). If you enjoy the music, support the artist by buying his CDs.
