Julia Reidy / Morten Joh – Tape Shadow (2022)

What Julia Reidy is currently doing with the guitar is nothing less than revolutionary. On »Tape Shadow,« the instrument plays a central role on two of the four pieces, while on the other two Morton Joh takes the lead with tape delay, vibraphone and synthesizers. All in all, this results in a collaboration album on which two musicians are in perfect harmony with each other and yet can play to their respective strengths to the full. A rare feat. This is psychedelic, at times almost psychotic music, claustrophobically dense in places and yet infinitely wide and open.
