Lemonade Belgium レコード& CD

Review: The brainchild of Ghent musician Pieter Santens; Studio 58 is the result of almost 10 hours of jams with members of Compro Oro and Big Whoop. Reduced to six pristine grooves and two skits, the final product hits that perfect combination of a warm, loose spirit but fully focused and dynamically arranged. From the wily switch between vibraphone and snaking wah wah guitar on "Red Seats Carpets" to the soft sunrise soul and jazzy swoons of "Midnight Wires" via the chugging club-focused tribal drums and Rodgers-level riffage of "Lalibela", this is a superb and highly immersive work of groove art.
