Despite this being their debut album, the band Badun has quite a few years on its back as well as a long line of live gigs. It is the fruits of all these years of experimentation and search for a unique sound that now sees the day.

The group makes clear references to Weather Report, Bitches Brew-era Miles Davis, the electronic duo Flanger (Burnt Friedman and Atom Heart) as well as Japanese artists like Sora. Still the album proves that Badun is capable of integrating its influences with its own sounds and ideas. The light melancholic tone and the tight style gives the sound a sophisticated touch and makes the album one of a kind.

With the opening tune Turban the album takes the listener by the hand and gently seduces you into Badun's own universe without pulling the carpet away from underneath your feet.

Here you´ll find room for reflection (Pulsen, Mælkebøtten, Nr. 44 & EF10), galaxies of micro-funk (Kompleks, Myg) and meteoric showers of percussion, wizardry and controlled chaos (Søvnløs & Fyrtårn). All delivered in a non repetitive yet relaxed manner.

In the world of Badun, traditional instruments sound like they are being played by improvising robotic insects. But despite the improvisational elements the music comes across as peaceful if mildly surreal - as the cover indicates.
