Review of Unmapping The Distance Keeps Getting Closer [12k1103]

Groove (DE)

Wandering sounds, meandering riffs, fragile floating melodic lines and skilfully contrasting clatter. The elegantly orchestrated ambient jazz of MM Works draws wide circles without having to arrive anywhere. Percussion and electric guitar circle each other, brightened by occasional flute accompaniment and electronically made to melt and flow, the pieces on Park (12K, December 6, 2024) are extremely clearly contoured. In all the calm it radiates, the music of the Copenhagen duo has an immense inner tension. This is definitely not stoned late hippie stuff, but highly concentrated improvisation that comes across so casually that it can become atmospheric space flight companions.
