RIBBON EFFECT | ep98 (False Walls)
Ribbon Effect's debut Slip (Roomtone) was well received and this half-hour excursion back to 1998 confirms the Chicagoan trio's capacity to deliver a convincing ragout of rock-oriented improvisation and practised studio know-how. Electronic keyboards, guitar, drums and accordian are cast in moulds that owe a debt to dub, melodic Krautrock or the sound design skills of group members Jacob Ross, Danielle Malkoff and Bill Talsma.
