Description:

Entscheidende Fragen zu Heilung, kultureller IdentitÃ¤t und Behinderung gehÃ¶ren zu den vielen Themen, die Thanya Iyers zweites Album â??KINDâ?? aufgreift. â??KINDâ?? erkundet ein expansives Universum, in dem Iyer und ihre Band zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen, Vorstellungen von Heimat und Ziele sowie unsere kollektive Verantwortung untereinander untersuchen. Um diese Reise mit groÃ?en, schwierigen Fragen zu erleichtern, engagiert Iyer die Hilfe einer groÃ?en Anzahl von Musikern, deren Gastauftritte von BlechblÃ¤sertrios, Vokalsextetten, FlÃ¶tisten und Harfenisten reichen. Die stÃ¤ndige Bewegung von KIND unterstreicht seine explorative Natur und verschmilzt die KlÃ¤nge von experimentellem Pop und Improvisation zu einem magischen Amalgam, das von Jazzblitzen und nuancierter Elektronik strotzt. Iyers Rhythmus-Sektion pulsiert mit genrewidrigen Paletten von Blips und Skittern, die sich elegant in die melodischen Stimmen von ineinandergreifendem Synth, Streichern und Klavier verwandeln, die von Iyers entzÃ¼ckendem Flair begleitet werden. Die rhythmische Richtung des Bassisten Alexander Kasirer-Smibert und des Schlagzeugers Daniel GÃ©linas ebnet den Weg in einer ansonsten nicht befahrbaren Umgebung, die auf der zurÃ¼ckhaltenden und dennoch faszinierenden Expertise der beiden beruht. -

Crucial questions around healing, cultural identity, and disability are among the many subjects visited by Thanya Iyer's sophomore album, KIND. Although represented by a concise title, KIND explores an expansive universe where Iyer and her band examine interpersonal relationships, ideas of home and destination, and our collective responsibilities to one another. To aid in this journey of big, difficult questions, Iyer enlists the help of a huge cast of musicians, with guest features ranging from brass trios, vocal sextets, flautists, and harpists. Underscoring it's explorative nature, the constant movement of KIND melds the sounds of experimental pop and improv into a magical amalgam that teems with flashes of jazz and nuanced electronics. Iyer's rhythm section pulsates with genre-defying palettes of blips and skitters that twist elegantly into the melodic voices of interlocking synth, strings, and piano, allled by Iyer's enrapturing lilt. The rhythmic direction of bassist Alexander Kasirer-Smibert and percussionist Daniel GÃ©linas clears a navigable path in an otherwise unnavigable setting, built on the pair's understated yet intriguing expertise. The most succinct distillation of the album's themes is perhaps found in KIND's tracklist. Please Don't Hold Me Hostage for Who I Am, Who I Was and Bring Back That Which is Kind to You inspire philosophies of self-care and emergent reconfigurations of justice, calling on listeners to self-reflect and detach from our preconceptions of ourselves and our identity. At the end of it's course, KIND arrives at the conclusion of acceptance and resolve: acceptance of our collective circumstance, and the resolve to make the choice to do better
