Luna Kafe Review Extract
Slow Attack is the perfect title; the power of this music will creep up on you gradually, and before you know it the damn thing is on repeat play. "Swimming in Greece" reminds me of the best bits of Massive Attack, with droning guitars, dubby bass, and Eastern-sounding beats. "Asleep in the Lake" continues the aquatic theme, featuring blissful ambient washes and the shimmer of tremoloed guitar. The masterstroke, however, comes with "Tension Agreement", built around a nagging, spindly loop of what sounds like an electronic harpsichord. The beat kicks off, with bass, organ, acoustic guitar and vocals following closely behind. The tune sways beautifully, yet it's difficult to put my finger on exactly what it is that I love about it so much. So simple, so effective. So addictive. This is the track that's really stuck in my head. Review extract with kind permission of Tim Clarke
