Comment: àrbore, the Spanish-based musical project provide 9 notches, all of them are instrumental and genuinely experimental progressions. In addition to treated guitar-based outlet a wide array of instruments are proudly represented there. For instance, arpeggio-laden guitar chords are accompanied by melodica-based drones and glockenspiel-based subtlety can be found from there. Furthermore, the whole starts off with sophisticated sound art-esque developments which can be categorized "abstract" if to regard folk-tinged things in narrow sense of this word. On the other side, àrbore`s sound does not follow the common understanding of folk music at all thereby rather being a solid representative of the New Weird Europe scene.
