The Konki Duet – Mountain Mouton

Active Suspension is a quietly brilliant little French label with a fondness for maverick electronica music. Though probably the most gentle record AS have released, it’s also the deepest, most inspired.

The Konki Duet appear to be a French/Japanese hybrid and the title is a play on the cover version within – Visage’s “Fade To Grey.” Barely off my stereo these past 2 months, it’s an intriguing quilt of smallbeat electronica, real strings, drums and exquisite vocal harmonies that puts me in mind of an eerier Mùm. ‘

Kyle Bobby Dunn – A Young Person’s Guide To

Dunn’s compositions are fully rich in timbre, painterly, hopelessly romantic and haunting; balanced between a wash of pure sound and an ornate yet subtle dance of classical instrumentation.

Occupying a truly cinematic scope, these pieces can transport the listener from the deepest and most forgotten landscapes to the furthest recesses of time.

I’ve had a chance to listen to the this entire title on a 320rip and I have to say this is a call for ” Stars Of The Lid ” ~ ” Celer ” ~ ” Arvo Pärt ” ~ ” Cylon ” and likes fans.

With tracks that breaches 17mins length you bet ” Dunn’s ” is determined to take his listeners to the deepest and darkest abyss you could possibly imagine of.

Follow the link below and have a thorough listen to ” Butel ” or ” Grab (and its lost legacies) ” but whatever you do…

Do not lay down cause this sound will drag you in an exceptional trance and eventually doze you off to sleep. Kyle Bobby Dunn – A Young Person’s Guide To
