Kettel




"Kettel is Reimer Eising (born 1982), a self-described “elixir-brewing, camping-loving and musicmaking sorcerer-to-be.” He is well-known for his playful, spontaneous melodies and organic folk sounds similar to Aphex Twin, Jega, and Plaid." -Quoted from Discogs.com.

If you've not heard of Kettel you're in for a real treat. The first example, "Why aren't we talking", is from a split LP called Series #2 - Hydrus / Kettel, with the A side featuring 4 songs from Hydrus and the B side featuring 6 songs from Kettel. The second example is from Kettel's 2005 album of the same name, "Through friendly waters."
