Taste, snack, enjoy.
We all need to eat. And there are those foods we love, those we prefer to avoid and those that take us to heaven or are our comfort foods.
There’s always a cure for everything: and gastronomy could well be an ally for those heavy mornings when the light doesn’t seem to enhance our genes.
Today, this light comes from Denmark. Meet Frokost.
We went to the translators and researched the essence of Frokost: more than just a band from Copenhagen, Denmark, made up of two artists (Mikkel and Tue) and their panoply of instruments, we wanted to know what we were getting at: why the word Frokost, and what is its meaning?
The universal answer is easy: food, for the comfort of our bellies, palates and senses. Mixed between breakfast, lunch or dinner, we’re talking about that special meal that we love to eat so much – and that we need to survive.
And from food, we cross over to another crucial essence of our lives: sounds, produced by the true artistic chefs of this sound kitchen.
And today we’re listening to “Nothing Short of a Trick“.
This single by the Danish band reminds us at first listen of their neighbour’s Kings of Convenience: the low and intimate instrumental at the back, with a magnificent and captivating guitar at the back, coupled with a magnificent vocal, which seems to whisper in our ear an unsettling story that we can’t help but imagine in our heads.
The song is short, at just over two and a half minutes, but it’s a beautiful work of art that we enjoy listening to over and over again. Like a dish you want to repeat repeatedly, Frokost are undoubtedly a band to watch—a WtMM recommendation.
