"The Franco-Czech duo Kesherul Neg Pineg casts a spell on ritual reductionism, offering unsettling, even gloomy, psychedelic grooves. Frenzied attacks, atmospheric soundscapes, the music remains unpredictable but full of abundant energy and unexpected turns. The two musicians bewilder the senses, creating illusions and deceptions, diverting their instruments, extended trumpet, dizzying analog synthesis, prepared percussion...
These two activists of improvised and experimental music met in Prague in 2015 and have since multiplied collaborations and exchanges (Toc and The Compulsive Brass, Butcher's Cleaver, ...)."-Tour de Bras
