Release Note ......::
Shpongle kicks off 2021 with Carnival Of Peculiarities EP, a seamless flow of
three genre-defying tracks that will tickle your auditory receptors and
stimulate your neuronal connections.
This extraordinary sonic voyage features the vivid storytelling, evocative
harmonic fabric, and unique fusion of electronic and organic instruments that
have made the name Shpongle synonymous with cutting-edge electronica, pushing
the limits of musical creativity even beyond barriers already broken by this
legendary project.
From the opening measures of the mystical Mycelium Labyrinth, the stage is set
for a journey beyond perceived dimensions, the music slowly evolving into a
polyrhythmic dance of synthesized voices and percussive elements that
seamlessly transition into the Carnival of Peculiarities. This celebratory
cosmic circus is simultaneously soothing and uplifting, a toe-tapping
emotionally expressive dance between Raja RamÆs flute, Simon PosfordÆs
innovative synth, bass, and drum work, and virtuoso Sylvain CartonÆs
double-reed horns.
SimonÆs antique Blⁿthner piano sensuously begins the final chapter of the
journey and the celebratory mood then cranks up with Dr. Vinklestein Says, a
much-anticipated production heard in earlier stages at sold-out shows at Red
Rocks and in SimonÆs livestreams. This ecstatic number explodes into the mayhem
of a psychedelic vaudeville show, brimming over with infectious enthusiasm and
unbridled energy.
The Carnival of Peculiarities EP is a mini-album thatÆs maximal in content,
covering the stylistic spectrum and creative range of a full-length release,
raising the bars of both musical expression and electronic engineering û an
unforgettable odyssey through Shpongleland.
