Moritz Von Oswald Trio

Restructure 2 Moritz Von Oswald Trio

Musically, this new stepper appears to swell out of thin air. Immense and minimal, the propulsive groove — monstrous child of Krautrock — is overlain during its twelve minutes with the blues abstraction of Tikiman's guitar, the swing and effects of Marc Muellbauer's double bass, Delay's digressive steel percussion, and the otherworldly keys of Loderbauer and von Oswald. With characteristic intensity, Mala's rebuild ratchets up the drama and dread. A mounting barrage of bleeps rains down on a vicious, clopping drum pattern and steely synths. The bass is transfixing. An immensely powerful record.
