Words by Justin Turford
Super gorgeous meditative rumble here from the Swiss award-winning drummer, composer and producer Arthur Hnatek (Tigran Hamasayan, Erik Truffaz). A tightly squeezed drums and bass (Fabien Iannone) section that resembles a Steve Reich composition with added funk is lent romance and thoughtfulness by saxophonist Francesco Geminaini’s deliciously subtle syncopated playing - imagine Sons Of Kemet without the apocalyptic fire! It’s not all repetition though, as Francesco stretches away from the sublime groove with his rich soft tone aided by the lightest of synth textures, helping to create a song for the mind as well as the body. This is the second single from their forthcoming ‘Apnea EP’ on Bridge The Gap and is a calm(er) riposte to the previous complexities of the first single ‘Pulser’. Stick it on loop!
‘Uncertainty’ is released on 20th July 2023 on Bridge The Gap
