A hugely ambitious pop record with Emiliana's soaring voice center stage, bolstered by a rich gamut of musical styles. From the summery skank of the title track to the surging, breathless single "Jungle Drum" to the yearning, spine-tingling "Big Jumps", "Me And Armini" is a truly sublime album. Torrini sings the song at the end credits for "The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers", and she wrote two #1 hits for Kylie Minogue. Produced by Dan Carey (Franz Ferdinand, Hot Chip).

Absolutely beautiful lyrics and very simple, almost minimal arragements. All the tracks... more info
Without you I would never rise.:
Emiliana Torrini's last album was all wistful folk. Before that, it was all equally wistful electronic pop and the creepily pretty closing song to "Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers." But before all that, she dabbled happily in everything from jazz to J-pop, raw-throated indie-rock to the blues -- and she did a pretty good job at all of them. And while her fifth album "Me and Armini" doesn't quite explore EVERYTHING she's done before, Torrini slips back comfortably into some of the musical niches she... more info
It's a hit:
Emiliana Torrini's music is awesome; it has way more of an original sound than the deplorable sounds we hear on the radio. If you like Regina Spektor, Yael Naïm, Feist, you should give her a listen:)
