    Man tänker sitt - or Burrowing - is the score to Henrik Hellström and Fredrik Wenzel's film of the same name. Composed by Stockholm-based musician Erik Enocksson, the soundtrack to Man tänker sitt is an otherworldly musical experience, underpinning the low-key tale of Swedish suburban life with a suitably spectral and evocative collection of compositions. At times reminiscent of the quietly enchanting soundtrack work by contemporaries such as Yann Tiersen and Clint Mansell, this score finds Enocksson channelling the circular melodies of Philip Glass too, all delivered with an ethereally baroque slant.

  • With its dark tail curled 'round the garage

    "With its dark tail curled 'round the garage" shows Erik Enocksson travelling further in the same gloaming landscape he explored with his praised music for the movie "Farväl Falkenberg".

    The frail - lonely suspended - organ tones, the beautiful choir arrangements, the whistling and the sparse use of acoustic instruments that brought out the film art of Jesper Ganslandt have not been abandoned though the music is more concentrated, the silence more pronounced.

    The simple, repetitive melodies performed with guitar, piano, reed organ and choirs have a sacred tone that lingers on like an old hymn. The glowing, nervy singing of Enocksson and the vivid lyrics gives "With its dark tail curled 'round the garage" a sense of desolation and forms stories of longing told by an isolated "I".

    But there is also a kind of modest hopefulness expressed through a poetic language of reverence before nature and the knowledge of life's strange beauty. "With its dark tail curled 'round the garage" is crystal clear and timeless music, filled with enchanting grace.
