This exclusive soundtrack from Tangents is spontaneous multi-music described by Ollie Bown as "A twenty minute soundtrack to a journey through rural lanes in Northern New South Wales."
https://soundcloud.com/tangentssydney is a Sydney-based quintet that melds electronic production, experimental rock and free improvisation. This multi-talented ensemble's collective resumé spans decent swaths of recent experimental music history: British electronic music producer Ollie Bown (Icarus, Not Applicable); Adrian Lim-Klumpes (ex-Triosk, 3ofMillions) on piano, Rhodes, vibraphone and marimba; Peter Hollo (FourPlay String Quartet) on cello; and the duo Spartak (free improviser Evan Dorrian and singer/producer Shoeb Ahmad on drums and guitar respectively). Tangents came together in 2010 shortly after Ahmad helped put together a tour of Bown’s UK-based duo Icarus. The first-ever meeting of the ensemble, performing live improvisations at the Megaphon studios in Sydney, became their debut album “I” (hellosQuare, 2013). The band followed up with another album-length improvised set recorded by the ABC for their Sound Quality sessions in 2014.
Their latest album Stateless has been released through Brooklyn's Temporary Residence Ltd. label (home of experimental and postrock luminaries such as https://soundcloud.com/four-tet, Explosions in the Sky, Hauschka and now Mogwai) on July 8th, 2016.
