referencing Cicadidae, CD, TRR 60

The Kammerflimmer Kollectief re-emerge with CICADIDAE, a delicious blend of jazz, electronics, and general insanity. For instance, “Neumond Inselhin” starts off with some lovely strings, then gradually adds strange electronic noodlings, and finally ends with a gentle guitar line. “Über Die Wasserscheide” and “...Denn Nacht Ist Jetzt Schon Bald!” both sound like complementary soundtracks to a lonely Western (though the latter devolves into some IDM glitch towards the end), while “Mantra” is slightly icier in its tone. “Eierdaunen (Gerupft)” is similarly cool, but with a tinge of melancholy; “Irgendwann: Frühling” is more uplifting -- almost dreamy. As a whole, the Kammerflimmer Kollectief is reminiscent of the Cinematic Orchestra (if they were allowed full improvisational free-rein) mixed with Jaga Jazzist (if they weren’t so frenetic). Is that a bad thing? Not at all.
