Ghouls
Ghouls is the 6th studio album from Bastien Keb. Through thereflective and introspectivemulti-mood journey of its 19-tracks, this album spanspsychedelic-chamber-funk, warped anti-ballads, cinematic instrumentals, Ethio-jazz and ethereal ambience. Part soundtrack, part beat-tape, part memoir, this is a dreamlike soundscape sewn together from half-forgotten memories & late night breakdowns. Entirely sample-free, this album is full to the brim with musical experimentation, with Keb's compulsion to make all the individual pieces of music independently; combining strings, harps, saxophones, theremins, clarinets, flutes and trumpets. He signals to the fuzzy, nostalgic nebulous of mid '90s skate videos, as well as harking back to the scores and moods of movies like The French Connection, Taxi Driver, The Warriors and La Haine. There are whispers of sounds in the air from jazz clubs, street preachers and Turkish restaurants. Keb describes the sonic experience of this album simply as this… "You're half awake, and half asleep, but you're warm…" For this 19-track opus, Keb is joined extensively by Malik Ameer Crumpler; a poet, composer, editor and professor based in Paris, who's been involved in numerous albums while writing for various forms of experimental media.
