Still rooted in the ornate, technical world of string\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e composition and arrangement, the album is stubbornly unclassifiable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOpening with time-dilated ambient ('𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘴') before segueing into rippling, florid techno ('𝘚𝘬𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘛𝘪𝘨𝘦𝘳'), Galina twists again and again, shifting gears through stoned, jazz-inflected r'n'b ('𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘐 𝘒𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘦'), string-led widescreen songcraft ('𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘉𝘢𝘤𝘬') and orchestral minimalism for standing on vast shorelines ('𝘛𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘚𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘵 𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘦𝘢𝘮𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘋𝘦𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦').\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the B side, Galina flexes her composition chops with the storming jazz of '𝘚𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘪𝘵 𝘓𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭', recorded by Cape Town-based musicians 𝐁𝐮𝐝𝐝𝐲 𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐬, 𝐀𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐰 𝐋𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐲, 𝐉𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐨 𝐒𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐦𝐚𝐧 and 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐝𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐳𝐚. Galina is then joined by 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐦 𝐒𝐚𝐱 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐭 on '𝘐𝘯 𝘙𝘦𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘛𝘪𝘮𝘦', a stately Reichian revelation that moves from solemn ballet to ecstatic multiharmonic denouement. To close, Galina retrieves oozing electronics and smeared journal entries from the guts of a black hole - a fitting conclusion to a truly unique, unpredictable, delightful, sad, infectious, and bizarre record.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003eIf you like this, why not check out our other recent \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/ambient\"\u003eambient music\u003c\/a\u003e releases and other offerings from \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/kit-records\"\u003eKit Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kit Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53213918363994,"sku":"KR81","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/8117\/5130\/files\/OneWeirdTrick-GalinaJuritz.jpg?v=1767186790","url":"https:\/\/kaninhalrecords.com\/products\/galina-juritz-one-weird-trick","provider":"KANINHÅL RECORDS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
