Takka Takka: Migration (Ernest Jenning)
release: July 29, 2008
style: soft space indie rock
similar: Elbow, Ten Kens, Thee More Shallows
[rating: ***] Produced by Sean of Clap Your Hands Say Yea, Migration opens like the avant-gardeness of a Laurie Anderson record. The ambience unravels towards new age space rock, where the soft spoken vocals get treated to delay and looping. The guitars and drums carefully choose their own stream of consciouness without stepping on any toes. Not enough to lose my mind in, but still a nice listen. - Kenyon
