[NM035] Living Ornaments - Korrels (2009)

Narrominded presents new albums by trusted Narrominded artists: Living Ornaments and Psychon. Both groups have been active on the label for almost a decade en with their new work they show they still have an absolute fresh and a very own vision on music. With their previous record Vlokken (2006) Living Ornaments created a classic in Dutch electronica. Korrels is the second album by the duo and has, besides the trusted elements like guitars, piano and broken samples, an important role for synthesizers. With Korrels Living Ornaments choose for a bolder approach and a clearer structure in their songs. But still, a track like Plunderaar – that was commissioned by the VPRO and was made with Japanese musical instruments from the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague – contains a truckload of ideas. It is a result of two musical brains that see the recording process as an abundantly equipped playground. Living Ornaments previously released music on labels like Skam and Scarcelight Recordings and played on the )TOON) Festival in Haarlem and in the national Dutch television program Vrije Geluiden.
