With Ghosted II out n’ about — unshackled from its phantom hull, phasing through the walls — Oren Ambarchi, Johan Berthling and Andreas Werliin deliver one more visual to play out their polyrhythmic skeletons. Summoned before us today is a new music video for the second track, “Två”, directed by Cédrick Eymenier, the trio’s longtime collaborator and soul-bound confidant.
“Två” opens with a portal of spiraling, metallic organs, cast in circles by Oren, above the muted bass harmonics of Johan and intermingling drum hits from Andreas. As the track crescendos towards planetary disarray, the keys whir up and down, in and out of lull. Cédrick’s video stacks the hypnotic feeling against greyscale giants, tunneling the viewer through skyscrapers and under archways. A sensation of architectural awe, if you will — much like Ambarchi/Berthling/Werliin’s staggering structure!
Back from the deepest trenches of their experimentation, Oren Ambarchi, Johan Berthling, and Andreas Werliin find fresh territory in jazz realms, ambient pastorals, and post-kraut drones on Ghosted II, available now on LP and streaming. Fill the space with an utterly unique guitar/bass/drums record and ride away with the ironclad video for “Två”.
