I like to make stupid music with my keyboard and my microphone in my bedroom.

That's the short description Ruthie - the girl behind the moniker Mount Weak shared on her bandcamp and I have to disagree. Her album and "Paradise Lost" in particular is anything but stupid. Gentle and mysterious, the young British singer/songwriter's music will make you forget the outside world and completely wrap you in a wave of comforting sounds.

With this record, Mount Weak won a place next to two other upcoming and extremely talented female singers who producer their own music and I absolutely adore - St. South and Lapsey. Did I also mention the track is for free download?
