With crooning skills somewhere between the likes of James Blake, Ben Folds and Jeff Buckley, the hottest heartthrob in town is Tamino, a Belgian-Egyptian whose name derives from the hero and prince of Mozart's opera 'The Magic Flute'. Not bad. Complete surrender you might say for his second album, and while singer-song writing tropes of acoustic guitar solos and lonely vocals are all there, touches of contemporary style can be heard in the beatmaking of "Sun May Shine" to the slightly dancier melancholi folk of "Chambers". It's the subtle strokes of Tamino's eastern tone and thematic in numbers like "So It Goes" and "Each Time", however, that give his music a sweet sheen of emotional exotica.
