Sweet Whirl is the solo work of Melbourne artist Esther Edquist, vocalist and keyboardist of Superstar, but you won't find much of the sunniness of that band's floaty long-afternoon guitar music here. Edquist uses just her voice, an evocative electric bass sound and occasional atmospheric recordings and room sound to create quiet, moving intimacy. Gently clouded in echo, Edquist’s voice has a smoky impenetrability that’s kind of like Cat Power, and a bit of the understated sensuality of some of the more low-key parts of PJ Harvey.
