OUR PICK - Tumivut
Volume:
28
Issue:
3
Year:
2010
Artist—Tumivut
Song—Love Song
Album—Movement
Written by—Tumivut
Label—Arbor Records
Tumivut was created in Montreal, when four talented artists discovered each other’s yearning and quest for musical expression. The word Tumivut when translated in English is ‘our footsteps’. They blend Inuit throat singing to contemporary sound and have mastered something that only we as people can cherish.
‘Love Song’ from the album ‘Movement’ in my words is described as a slow paced song, almost like the beginning of a relationship and ends to a fast paced rhythmic heartbeat like a full blown quarrel of love. It is complemented with the various musical instruments that not only complete but master every tempo.
