BOURBONESE QUALK, "On Uncertainty"

Do yourself a favour and get this one...
Bourbonese QualkÍs unspectacular return is one of the best things thisyear had to offer music-wise. Miles Miles and Simon Crab continue theirunique traces where they left of with 'Unpop' nearly a decade ago.
Uncompromising with references to none besides their own work, theyblend electronic and accoustic instrumentation to manifest their veryown soundscapes which generate a nearly uncomparable atmosphere. RayBradburyÍs Mars Chronicles are about the nearest I can think off.Otherworldly harmonies are set against subtilerhythms, tapemanipulations and metallic sounds. Even a Sax and vocals find theirplace without spoiling the overall mood which is gentle and playful,free of any dogmaÍs and boundaries. A well balanced piece of work whichwill certainly stand the test of time.
If you canÇt afford or find it - half of the album is downloadable from www.bourbonesqualk.com.
