about

To slip inside the weekend easily - we have a new tune for you.
In stark contrast to our 'Improvisation' series; this one is carefully
thought-out and composed. As we like to wear our influences on our sleeves / here we go:

The double-thumb bassline - that carries through the whole composition - is a direct reference to 'Tetuzi Akiyama & Greg Malcolm's' composition called 'Nijmegen Duck'.
We tried to capture the stark minimalistic nature of that track.

Somewhere in the middle there is a huge nod to 'Steve Reich' with a polyrhythmic section that leaves those two guitars dancing like an intertwined cosmic-serpent.

The grotesque & dissonant melody at the end is our interpretation of 'BOLERO' by 'Ravel'.

As this wasn't dramatic enough yet - we've titled this one 'ACCEPTATIE VAN HET NOODLOT'
