Written and produced by El Perro Del Mar & Jacob Haage, the 10 original songs of ‘KoKoro’ are her most ambitious and musically adventurous to date, yet no less emotionally direct, covering themes that speak to both big and small matters of the heart. With the state of the planet - musically, politically, environmentally - on her mind since the birth of her son, Assbring sees ‘KoKoro’ as not only an album but also as an aesthetic and political movement of sorts. She explains: “‘KoKoro’ is about the vulnerability and the strength of the heart. What the heart is exposed to, both internally and externally. The heart cannot be protected. Not from pain, not from happiness. Not from love, not from corruption. I've been thinking a lot about issues such as ‘who am I if the social norms, expectations and pressures I carry were to be stripped away? Hard? Soft? Or maybe both? In a time that seems to go backwards humanistically and morally, seeking to put up walls rather than tearing them down, I realized I wanted to make a borderless album that belongs nowhere but has a universal voice and a universal heart.”

This CD refuses to leave an impression
This CD continues in the same direction that El Perro Del Mar started traveling after her abrupt turn with "Pale Fire." The problem? The songs just are not as memorable as those on "Pale Fire." I almost would call this a pale imitation of that record, but that's too obvious. There's nothing "off" or "sour" here. The problem here is that these songs just refuse to make any impression whatsoever on the listener. It's like eating a bowl of popcorn for dinner. While it may be tasty and enjoyable, ultimately you're left unsatisfied.

El Perro Del Mar takes you to a specific place ...
El Perro Del Mar takes you to a specific place with each album. You never quite know where it will be, but I am loving where Kokoro is taking me. Modern with traditional Asian instruments. Sadness and optimism in equal parts.
