Review: Anthony Eymery aka Amandra teams up with Mattheis to deliver this wonderfully introspective long player on Dutch label Nous'klaer Audio. Featuring Eymery on drums and Matheis laying down expansive synth textures, tracks like "Cornemuse" and "Manekin" are redolent of 90s ambient techno. Meanwhile, on "Jungeldam (Short Version)", they make a move of sorts to the dance floor with a wiry, snaking rhythm; "Kobold" is a more direct, dubbed out techno track and "Merle" is a lean, linear workout that gives way to building chords. Changing tact again, "Rubina Finale" is the kind of blissed-out, organic-sampling piece that you would hear blaring from disc-men during a Himalayan trek in the 90s.
