Comment: this set of 7 compositions is a collaborative act between two Estonian daring musicians and a Danish experimental/jazz stamina which in general reflects much upon pessimistic tendencies which may be considered a purgatorial outlet for recent dead-end music situation. Given that the human species` over-commitment to progress and coming around to an unjustifiable belief in endless development and presumable causal moral enhancement will have ended nowhere but a bad-looking crisis in pop music then dada and Tzara and their method of weird and wonderful is going to bail out. On the other side, by regarding the recent situation in pop music I guess the trio is having much more objects to deal with rather than providing spot on the superficial and lifeless tendency. The slightest inclination toward it may be a deconstructive or destructive act against it. The first of them is a hidden violent and the second one is an overtly violent act against the sonic brouhaha, respectively. It is quite strange of how such sort of music can put things into a boned perspective – it is predominantly led by Roomet Jakapi`s vocal trickery (whose main occupation is philosophy being penchant for topics of the early modern period). Niels Praestholm and Mart Soo provide mostly an electro-acoustic staccato background imbued with squeaks, creaks, screeches, skronks, and squalls. The whole does not feed into a rigorous concept but instead of coming up with playful, even psychedelic strokes. The decorous vanguard outing is a part of the discography of an Estonian imprint, Improtest.
