A Matter of Time

“dude why would she release this after my vietnam competition where i fell to my knees outside court 2 and cried and the trauma was so bad i couldnt even look down on the courts during the next few days without tearing up. very good album tho, the tears at 5am in Nha Trang were worth it”

Bewitched: The Goddess Edition

“Bewitched: The Goddess Edition is a perfect Laufey record. that’s not to say it’s a perfect record, or that it’s for everyone. in a way, she’s a student of the great artists of jazz that has come before her, and is clear about her intent to make her space among the jazz greats by covering standards like “Misty”, featured on this album. the unfortunate thing is a lot of the album does end up sounding like very traditional jazz. it’s only when you look/listen deeper and realise Laufey does a fantastic job of flipping the jazz genre we all know to modernise and update it for the 21st century. it’s a jazz album, but also TikTok friendly. give it a listen - if you like this one, i have a feeling Laufey might be your new favourite artist!”

“I love this album so so sooo much it understands me to such a deep level. Every single song is crafted so beautiful and form such an thought off place that it’s simply a masterpiece.”

A Matter of Time

“one of laufey’s best hands-down. her nods to classical music just warm my heart, and her jazzy voice is just like smooth caramel. her lyrics are enchanting and heartbreakingly laufey, and her instrumentals are unlike any other artist i’ve seen. faves are definitely snow white, forget-me-not and a cautionary tale, with honourable mentions to silver lining and carousel. her interlude is charming and the motifs in full classical instrumental is just beautiful. a deserved grammy and one of her most magnetic albums yet.”
