The familiar and the foreign collide on “Flute Worship,” taken from Akimbo’s Sun Moon & Five Peaks EP on Tonal Unity. The new release is the result of Akimbo, an alumni of the 2011 Academy in Madrid, living for the last couple of years in Korea and exploring the country’s rich heritage of traditional music. An 80 BPM club tune with audible inspiration taken from zouk and jungle, “Flute Worship” also highlights the Piri (피리), letting the unique sound of the double-reed flute take the melodic lead.
