Sonar Kollektiv Germany Vinilo y CD

Review: WAAN is something of a musical marriage between the well-travelled and well-seasoned saxophonist Bart Wirtz and keyboard star Emiel van Rijthoven. They have a real synergy in the studio that pays out across this record which is more than simply a jazz-influenced dance album. Both of these artists are tech nerds from the Netherlands and that comes out in the music here which has edgy keys with arpeggiators, sombre Ethiopian bass and drum grooves, voodoo beats and a freestyle feel born from the live manner in which much of the record was recorded.
