Everest Magma – “Ponte”

Avatar

Typically I’ve associated the Italian label Black Sweat with more outre releases scrawled with free jazz and noise. Their latest offering pushes well into the woods of psychedelic folk, though. A new release from Everest Magma skips along on a skittering beat that pulses like an anxious metronome. Atop that pulse is a languid mix of looped guitars, hand drums, and weary vocals. Everest Magma has been a working project for some time, releasing records on Boring Machines and Maple Death, but this diverges a bit from his past records which tend to mix in more noise and field recordings. This one feels like a bend back to 2006 when CD-r labels were plentiful and forest folk grew up everywhere. The new album, Alto//Piano, is out now on Black Sweat.
