Dylan Mondegreen is the moniker of Norwegian indie singer/songwriter Børge Sildnes. On his fifth album he has once more been working with Ian Catt (Saint Etienne, Field Mice and many more), who co-produced his third and self-titled album.

The title track and album opener A Place In The Sun starts with 30 seconds of ambient noise before a 30 piece Makedonian string orchestra and Børge’s home-recorded vocals kick in. «Is it so much to ask to grow old in a peaceful land?» he asks at the start of the song. And whether the songs are about politics, love, architecture, ­nostalgia or fatherhood, they also seem to share an underlying theme: where and what is home and where do you belong?

Through the nine songs on this album, you’ll find all the elements that have secured Dylan ­Mondegreen a small but loyal international following: rich arrangements, warm vocals and catchy tunes with lyrics that actually mean ­something. 

From the indie soul on The Best Thing to the 10cc-like layered vocals on Sunless Summer, Børge avoids repeating himself while still staying true to his formula, eleven years after his debut album.

About Dylan Mondegreen:
«He writes sad, sweet songs - dare I make a Blueboy comparison? Perhaps! There are equal measures of Jens Lekman, Acid House Kings and Sufjan Stevens in there, too.” - NME, Jacob Graham (The Drums)

«It’s a wonderfully truthful and human record that serves as another compelling bit of evidence in favor of declaring Sildnes one of the best indie pop singer/songwriters around.» - AllMusic

“Indie-pop has entered its soft-rock phase, and ... it sounds pretty good” - Pitchfork

Wishing Well

Norwegian recording artist. "Flawlessly written and performed, and produced with uncommon skill and grace — it’s likely one of the best singer/songwriter records of 2012, and most any year that came before.” 4,5/5 - AllMusic
