Sailor and I
The Invention Of Loneliness
Swedish singer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Alexander Sjödin doesn’t fit most of the archetypes associated with electronic music. Recording under the name Sailor and I he mines a territory that brings to mind the melancholic, ambitious and richly orchestrated songwriting of Sigur Ros or Bon Iver, as much as the deep Balearic techno class of DJ-producers such as Solomun and Dixon. Sailor and I has been on quite a journey since he first caused an A&R storm on Soundcloud in 2011 with Tough Love, a string-swathed ballad that managed to bring to mind both Philip Glass and Kate Bush. Five years later, he’s signed to Skint, an album’s worth of material ready to go.
