For the Folkslave

Owen Pallett - Heartland

I know you're a big Arcade Fire fan, and Owen Pallett actually writes and arranges the string sections on all three AF albums, as well as plays occasionally with the band. His solo work is based around the violin, and he plays parts and loops them to create a bit of a one-man orchestra. Heartland is really lovely, and if I had to compare I'd say it's part Arcade Fire, part Sufjan Stevens, and honestly, I thought it was better than the Suburbs this year.
