Kaffir Piano, by The Double Headed Seagulls

Kaffir Piano employs a variety of unconventional production techniques to make its less-than-two-minute track stand out. It is bass-focused, but not to the point of overshadowing the other elements. The atmosphere it creates lingers over the guitar and bass, perfectly capturing that moment when you come home from work at 6 PM, and it's already dark. You're home, but the day has slipped away.

The Double Headed Seagulls have never shied away from a tightly focused, harmonically experimental sound. Much of their music evokes a constantly shifting musical undercurrent. Flowery language aside, you can certainly count on The Double Headed Seagulls to push harmonic boundaries but in a very understated way. Kaffir Piano does just that.

Auger In - The Human Sea, Featuring Cale Parks of Aloha

Auger In’s first record is all about post rock improvisation at it's best: Raw, layered, textured guitars provide the atmosphere while pulsating and energetic drums provide the pulse of the music. The Human Sea is like a drummer being told to show off while he/she is playing in a cloud, and the cloud changes form to match his/her playing. The contrast is surprising!

The Human Sea features Cale Parks, solo artist and drummer of the band Aloha, and Dave Wirth, film composer and guitarist. Originally recorded in 2001, and released on January 21st, 2021.
