Snail Charmers

by SKNAIL

supported by

Christopher Moklebust SKNAIL's Snail Charmers is a kind of futuristic jazzism that paints the picture of some dystopian technological debacle in which the man monitors, with surgical precision, even those who listen to the more avant-garde of tunes and deems them a threat to society. It's an inherently political statement. This should be required listening for those who profess Hip-Hop and Rap to be the only real medium - so they can sense the sound of real creative genius within a genre so full of flaw. Favorite track: I shot the robot.

about

Imagine an old-fashioned jazz club, dark and filled with smoke. A singer, five top notch musicians, breathtaking improvisations. Now transpose the same scene into the year 3147! SKNAIL, a Swiss composer and producer, has done just that and presents a 2nd album of visionary, organic jazz, some sort of a musical sci-fi novel, in which the « not- quite-humans-anymore » play the music of their ancestors, digging it up from some faraway place in their memory. The warmth of the acoustic instruments confronts cold electronics and takes the listener on a journey into the jazz of the distant future, delicate and pure. From their futuristic and ultra-technological world the Snail Charmers are transmitting an important message with the help of Nya’s voice.
