{"product_id":"kohoutek-akvoturo-lp","title":"KOHOUTEK - Akvoturo LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eHighly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith Akvoturo, Kohoutek is delving into a more experimental form of their brand of US psych\/space jams, a loose concept album sonically examining the consequential role that water has played in nascent civilizations, starting from our ancestral habitats. The title is in Esperanto, in theory a language as universal to humanity as water is to its diet, as well as an homage to the label ESP which is a substantial inspiration on the Kohoutek ethos, informed by revolutionary free jazz and outsider psychedelia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis release consists of 4 tracks (2 on each side). Side A starts out with Pluvobaro, a combination of Eastern inspired components, including repetitive gamelan-esque marimba and other rhythmic work, with an insect-like drone. The side continues with Inundo, a more traditional sounding American psych jammer, which could sit nicely beside any of Clint Takeda’s (of Bardo Pond fame) projects, which member Scott Verrastro also plays in. Starting as a slow thudding jam, before taking up double-time, teetering on PSF inspired fuzz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Triumphant transmissions by these spacey voyagers. Their main objective is to stoke the flames on the gray matter BBQ of the average sober-minded citizen. Be prepared to have your ass dragged through the cosmic canals of Mars and beyond. Project Blue Book has got nothing on these motherf*ckers!!!” — John Schoen\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=860106482\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/track=671558012\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Carbon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44597607071786,"sku":"KOHOUTEK - Akvoturo LP","price":63.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1273\/6111\/files\/kohoutek-akvoturo.jpg?v=1784526394","url":"https:\/\/www.strangeworldrecords.com.au\/products\/kohoutek-akvoturo-lp","provider":"Strangeworld Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
