Salamanda – In Parallel

There’s a lot going on in South Korea. The K-Pop campaign has probably contributed to the fact that people outside the country are getting curious about what is going on there beside the mainstream. Take the duo Salamanda, who combine excitingly peaceful sounds on »In Parallel«. These are neither too familiar nor do they follow each other in a particularly predictable way. Well, they use repetition and groove, but everything is very gentle. A kind of extremely minimalist pop that sounds discreetly Asian.
