Super Numeri - The Coastal Bird Scene
(12") Ninja Tune ZEN12141, 2003-09-01
Info :
Dans la foulée de l'album "Great Avaries", album le plus psychédélique de tout le catalogue Ninja Tune, à consommer avec délectation et langueur en descente de champignons à la campagne, Super Numeri enfoncent le clou avec le maxi "The Coastal Bird Scene" (parts 1 & 2, vinyle uniquement). Point de breakbeats ou de drum'n'bass intelligente ici, faites place aux harpes, flutiaux divers et balais délicats d'un printemps pastoral, et laissez-vous porter par ce doux free jazz sans contraintes.

Press Release :
In any other situation you might have thought this was a reference to the young women of Rhyll but with nutsoid Liverpool avant-frot collective Super Numeri, you can rest assured that it is actually an ornithological reference.
Since their debut album "Great Aviaries" came out, Super Numeri have been dressing in strange outifts and taking their brand of English eccentric audio-experimental pastoralism to the people.
"The Coastal Bird Scene" is a twelve inch in three parts packed with harp-led minimalistics, a kind of folk re-working of Miles Davis' "In A Silent Way". It sucks you into a series of mild, hypnotic grooves before spitting you out on Part 3 with a sudden burst of discordant emotion.
No one else in the UK is making music quite like this - prepare to be stunned, both by the beauty of it all and the sheer bollocks of the people making it.
