Hall, Martin - Facsimile CD/DVD @ INDIEtective

(2006) Mit Bonus-DVD.

On Monday the 13th of February Martin Hall released his first solo-album as a singer in seven years, the CD 'Facsimile'. Apart from ten new tracks, the record was released with a bonus-DVD, a visual setting for the album as a whole, produced by the Danish photographer and design analyst hansen-hansen.com.

Having avoided the role as singer and autobiographical songwriter for years, Hall thereby returned to his starting point as an artist with a collection of songs that represent some of his most personal ever. The impressively orchestrated album is built up around a set of fairly simple ballads, tracks with an emotional span that runs from the subdued and quiet to the dramatic and grand.

Among the guests on the album you will find internationally acclaimed Danish act Efterklang (signed to the British Leaf-label) who has produced the last song on the album, ''Tu Es Mon Image'' (a track on which Biljana Stojkoska from another Danish group, Steve Albini-produced Amber, also appears). The orchestral sequences are recorded with The Vista Dome Ensemble, which MH has worked with on several occasions (as an example on his critically acclaimed instrumental score to the 'Camille'-album from 2002).

'Facsimile' was met with a bouquet of overwhelmingly positive reviews and announced as Hall's best ever by several leading music journalists.
