Shiggajon - Fire sange i gul og rød
Fiercely beautiful arcs of droning strings and flute swirl with the burning of a desert sun. This is rich and spicy music full of eastern tones and smoke-filled ragas. The fact this collective gather sandstorms from Denmark adds to the mystique. Singing Knives first release of 2009 is a twenty-minute prayer of improvised rolling drones and instrumental tapestries that warrant comparison to Harappian Night Recordings, Tony Conrad and MV & EE’s Medicine Show. The four movements drive a raucous sound with loose percussion, stringed drones and various wind/brass explorations. Shiggajon are suitably placed on the Singing Knives label, as they express a kinship in expression to Chora, Part Wild Horses Mane On Both Sides, Hunter Gracchus and the whole UK/EU improv scene (not jazz), which has gathered a powerful momentum over the past two years.
Peter Taylor, May 2009, Foxy Digitalis
