Oren Ambarchi, Johan Berthling, & Andreas Werlin – Ghosted II LP Supply

Ambarchi, Berthling and Werliin make for an utterly unique guitar bass drums triad: the guitar sounds like anything but a guitar; bass and drums simultaneously insistent and relaxed. On this much-desired sequel to their acclaimed 2022 debut, their unique telepathic group-think (re)opens the window to fresh acres of fusion, where funk-jazz heads, polyrhythmic skeletons, ambient pastorals, post-kraut drones and shimmering soundtrack reveries dance immortal. A music of sustained tension and deep atmosphere, marked by subtle, shifting dynamics playing out in an open sound field.
