Album Notes & Community Reviews
This Belgian avant-garde endeavor blends the acoustic elegance of classical chamber music with the complex, shifting meters of avant-prog. Led by guitarist Daniel Schell, the ensemble weaves repetitive, minimalist textures and polyrhythmic structures into remarkably peaceful and lush compositions. The quirky interplay of acoustic instruments and subtle electronics highlights a sophisticated European experimentalism.
