Minus 30 Celsius ... CD Astigmatic (Poland), 2023. New Copy ...
Out Of Stock
A cinematic blend of electronics and percussion – served up in a way that every bit as evocative as a vintage soundtrack, especially work from the 80s action years – yet handled with a sonic richness that often surpasses music from that generation too! The group's a duo – and features Latarnik on keyboards and piano, an artist you may know from other great titles on the Astigmatic label – working in collaboration here with drummer Cancer G, who also plays some keyboards as well – as the pair craft these tracks that open up with all sorts of subtle shifts in tone, color, action, and life. Titles include "Minus 10 Celsius", "Nadeszia Zima", "Zamrozenie", "Zamiec", "Roztopy", "Ostatnia Taka Zima", and "Lawina". CD
A keyboard-heavy set by a group of musicians who all have roots in the London jazz scene – working together here in modes that are a bit more spacey and electric overall! The music has amazing drums from Chiminyo at the core – playing funkily, but also with some elements that almost make him feel like he's working with samples too – next to the electric bass of Luke Wynter, and twin keys from Amane and Al Macsween – who play Prophet 8, Prohet 6, Moog Mother 32, and Moog Subsequent 37 – all with the cosmic sounds you might expect! The drums are often nicely skittish, and really propel the music – and the song names really give you an idea of the music, with titles that include "Celestial Waves", "Oneiric Voyage", "Outer Sea", "Solaris Ocean", "Earth Diver", and "Asteroidea".
