　　NPR's Tom Huizenga said of the pair's 2017 album 'Hymn Binding,' "If From the Mouth of the Sun's mission... is nothing more than beauty itself, they have succeeded on a disproportionate scale." That quote does well to encapsulate Martin and Rosenqvist's main motivations with the project. Does one truly require a lengthy narrative with music as potent and emotive as From the Mouth of the Sun?
　　Lost Tribe Sound has long-admired From the Mouth of the Sun's ability to remain focused on the music. Despite the duo having a clear vision and a strong understanding of composition, there are no grand statements or overly academic concepts at play. This allows the music to just be what it is, moving, deep, personal. This unadorned approach is refreshing. The music feels like a blank canvas, easily approachable... rooted in the physical... its emotion is tangible.
　　'Light Caught the Edges' moves in new directions without being a complete sea change from their previous works. Over the last couple of years, From the Mouth of the Sun began introducing synths and experimenting outside of their more familiar acoustic sound sources. Rosenqvist pushed for a stronger sense of forward motion by utilizing a number of well chosen arpeggios and subtle percussive techniques.
　　The new album also features several guest musicians. Lisen Rylander Löve performs the saxophone on "Breaking Light." Some may recall Lisen's moving sax work on "Come Silence" from Rosenqvist's 2016 solo album, 'Elephant.' Drummer Esben Willems (Monolord) also adds his talents to "Breaking Light." Elsewhere, Jacob Lindhagen delivers a special piano performance on "Landing in the Dark." Coincidentally, Rosenqvist and Lindhagen have just released a collaboration album with the US label Time Released Sound, entitled, 'Stadsbilder,' (Aug. 6th, 2021).
　　Even with the addition of new players, new tools, and the exploration of new genres, 'Light Caught the Edges' still sounds like a From the Mouth of the Sun album. The warm attentive presence of Martin's string work, like rolling waves ever-folding in on themselves, help to calm the searing edges of Rosenqvist's unpredictable dynamics. It's an alluring push and pull that they have perfected over the course of four albums, an EP, and multiple film scores.
