Soap&Skin's Mini-Album "Narrow" zeugt von Verlust, Überwindung und einer Rückkehr ins Leben. An ihrem einzigen Schweizer Konzert, am 15.3. in der Roten Fabrik in Zürich, lässt uns Anja Plaschg live an der Verarbeitung des Geschehenen teilhaben. Drei Jahre sind ins Land gezogen seit " Lovetune For Vacuum ". Drei Jahre, in denen Dinge passiert sind, die Anja Plaschg die Musik geraubt haben. Ihr, der damals - kaum volljährig - die Songs scheinbar aus dem Nichts in den Schoss zu fallen schienen. In ihnen lebte sie als Soap&Skin [...]
Tweet Photo © Aki Roukala Perhaps it has something to do with its long winter months of darkness, but it is my feeling that Finland has more of a coherent grasp of true gothic Americana better than any place in the world. Despite having grown up in the American Midwest, most of my appreciation for American roots music has been gleaned from the Finnish people in my life, who first introduced me to Harry Smith's "Anthology [...]

As such, an album of its groundbreaking magnitude deserves only the most elite of collaborators for a tribute concert, which it got during last month's The Velvet Underground Revisited concert in Paris.

Anja Plaschg or, as she calls herself, Soap&Skin grew up in a village in Austria, at her parent's farm. She's been playing piano since she was 6, violin since she was 14, when she also started to be interested in electronic music. After dropping out of several art schools, she made her debut album, Lovetune for Vacuum , released in March 2009. The song below is just a small sample of how pretty and powerful her music is.

Soap & Skin, Festival Les Femmes S'en Mêlent, Paris, l'Alhambra le 24/03 Je descends le canal Saint-Martin un peu lasse mais le cœur léger après la folle soirée de la veille à la Maroque (fantastique Jessie Evans !). Je sens que ce festival va laisser quelques traces indélébiles sur mon esprit en quête de nouveauté. Au programme ce soir : la très sombre Autrichienne Soap&Skin . Je frissonne à l'idée de me plonger dans l'univers gothico-dramatique de la très [...]
Soap&Skin vient d'Autriche. Un curieux nom de scène pour une jeune femme d'à peine dix neuf ans, à la beauté fragile et au teint diaphane. Quoi que. Dès les premières notes on pressent l'étrangeté cristalline, la pureté maladive. Le titre de son récent EP, Marche Funèbre, n'est guère plus rassurant. On ferme les yeux et on se retrouve en plein cœur d'une nuit froide, où la voûte céleste se joint à la terre déshumanisée par d'épais rideaux brumeux. On reste à l'affût, on trésaille, et il y a de quoi. Avec déjà un album à son actif, Lovetune for Vacuum (PIAS, [...]
Så enden snart nået for dette år og som så mange andre, har nytårets kommen fået os til se tilbage på året, der gik og samle de bedste albums fra 2009. Men året har også budt på en række kunstnere, der til trods for, at de endnu er uden album, har gjort indtryk. Den newyorkbaserede houseduo House of House startede året med udgivelsen af singlen 'Rushing to Paradise'. En måned senere udgav danske Kenton Slash Demon deres 'Khattabi' ep på ditto danske Tartelet Records. 'Khattabi' satte for [...]

Soap&Skin – Narrow
One can hardly say that Austria is the best place to be born when you want to make a breakthrough in pop music, even less so when you chose to sing in your native language. So how did Anja FPlaschg aka Soap&Skin manage to get so much attention for her debut album Lovetune For Vacuum in 2009? She built her own universe without looking around - a mix of melancholic piano tunes and threatening electronic beats and sounds, with a theatrical sense of delivery that makes it all even more intense. New EP [...]

Soap&Skin- "Wonder" (Loved)
On March 19th, Austrian singer-songwriter Anja Franziska Plaschg will be dropping her second album under the Soap&Skin pseudonym, Narrow . "Wonder" is the second track to drop from the album, and the track is as simple as it is painful. Anja's weary voice coos softly over gently played piano arpeggios as an atmosphere of extremely faint instrumentation builds up from behind. The occasional heavy bass not pops into play, which serves as a constant reminder of how heavy and loud this song could have been. Though the total package is quiet, "Wonder" is pretty great [...]

Soap&Skin- "Boat Turns Toward the Port"
Soap&Skin is the musical project of Austria singer-songwriter Anja Franziska Plaschg. She's got a new EP on the way titled Narrow . The track above, "Board Turns Toward The Port," is the first one to drop from the EP, and it's absolutely chilling. The combination of Anja's vocals and this heavy, lumbering beat creates a serious emotional punch-of course, this is only enhanced by putting the music against video of an exploding space shuttle.

Austrian singer and songwriter, Anja Plaschg of Soap&Skin has a music video for her latest single "Boat Turns Toward The Port". The track is taken from her Narrow EP, which comes out on February 13th. Her scornfully mature voice is heard throughout the video as the space shuttle continues to launch in the sky. There [...]

I migliori album del 2009 per OndaRock
E così andiamo a mostrarvi anche la classifica di fine anno targata OndaRock, da anni una delle webzine musicali più importanti e più seguite a livello nazionale. Dico subito che la numero uno mi sorprende leggermente, non che sia un brutto disco, anzi, ma vederlo lì sopra a tutti mi fa uno strano effetto. Sto parlando di "Lovetune For Vacuum" di Soap&Skin , il progetto di Anja Franziska Plaschg che, va ricordato, ha solamente 19 anni... alla faccia di tutti quel che dicono cose come "sì, ma è giovane" quando si parla di artisti teen-oriented, come a [...]
