Caeke

Danish electronic pop act Hess Is More presents CAEKE. After several orchestral and experimental adventures, Hess Is More is once again back to where it started, as Mikkel Hess' (more or less) solo venture through the borderlands of pop music. Gone are the sprawling ensemble works. The sound of CAEKE is minimalist, spacious and mellow. Piano, drum machines and vintage synths assemble a curious DIY space for Hess' voice to wander. pensive and unhurried, with strange, eccentric poetry. In honest Hess-ian fashion, the maturity of the sound is offset by a tendency for the childish, the curious. a subversive lightheartedness, which traces back to Hess' early works. Take the chorus to 'I Love My Life. Again and Again', laid above an innocuous drum machine beat:
