Sample This MP3

This CD, by the Danish trio Sumi, has created a unique contemporary sound using steel pans, guitar, rhodes and machines. The trio’s starting point is a musical openness with ample space for experimenting and pursuing spontaneous ideas. The musicians manipulate the sounds of their instruments with various effects, and the result is a wide range nuanced soundscape. Sounds and pieces of melody are recorded during performances and used as loops and detached samples. These elements along with the members’ different musical backgrounds have resulted in a beautifully intuitive album where no musical style is defined, but where melodic fragments converge into expressive sound collages.
