Pocket Lint – Wunderkammer (Electric Confetti)

Label Description: Museums and galleries collect, catalogue and curate objects deemed culturally and historically important. A Wunderkammer has no such pretensions. All it hopes to do is present objects that the owner thinks are beautiful or interesting. By doing so, they create a multi-faceted mirror.
So come inside and know me better…

Some review excerpts

“There’s a real warmth to Mark’s sound, the synths here in particular come on rich and deep. Nice work in a catalogue of work that sits, as we’ve said before, very much on the right side of 80s retro pop.” Neil Mason Moonbuilding

“pigeonhole Mark James Heffernan at your peril – for this really is a work of art in its own right and is a remarkable release by an ever increasingly interesting musician” Loz Etheridge God is in the TV Zine

“If you’re the type of person who loves to sit down with a record and really listen to the details, this is for you. It’s officially out as of June 26th, 2026, and you can grab it on CD via Bandcamp or find it on all the usual streaming sites. It’s a great piece of work, and I think it’s going to be in heavy rotation for me for a while. ” Moby Tanner Rebirth of Cool Blog

“Wunderkammer is an outstanding album from Pocket Lint, full of impressive production, heartfelt performances, and a sound world that feels both unusual and deeply human. It confirms Mark Heffernan’s ability to build not just songs, but whole spaces for listeners to step into.” Loop Solitaire

“It is a surprising way to end an album of this kind but Mark is full of surprises and it allows the work to float ethereally into the
distance, rounding off another well-conceived and accomplished
album.” Neil March Trust the Doc Media

“Far removed from the standardized formats dictated by algorithms, Pocket Lint delivers a visceral, captivating record that invites the listener to get lost in it in order to fully appreciate its richness.” Iggy Magazine

“The artist allows the objects—the songs, whether real, imagined, or impossible—to construct that “multifaceted mirror.” Eleven songs to contemplate, listen to, savor, and discover.” Revista Soundloop

“The charm of “Wunderkammer” lies in its refusal to choose between craftsmanship and literature. Many concept albums get bogged down in their own instructions. Here, the concept, on the contrary, makes you want to delve deeper. Pocket Lint isn’t selling a grand, pretentious epic; it’s offering a private collection, slightly dusty, wonderfully suspicious.

We go in to look at the objects.

We leave with the impression that they took notes on us.” Extravefrench

“Plenty of records promise to take you somewhere; few bother to build the doorway first. This one does, and you believe you have stepped through it before the first chorus arrives.” Indie Dock Music Blog

“[the album] presents a thoughtful continuation of Pocket Lint’s evolving approach to composition and storytelling in sound-based form that rewards attentive and repeated listening sessions over time.” Melody Arena
