Strange Attractor - Everything Is Closer
Strange Attractor are Niels VanHoorn (Legendary Pink Dots) and Richard Van Kruysdijk (Phallus Dei, Sonar Lodge) plus guest vocals by such diverse singers as Edward Ka-Spel ( LPD ), Richard Sinclair and Marie-Claudine Vanvlemen (Sonar Lodge). On their CD debut, Strange Attractor grazes the edges of jazz, ambient and soulful electronica, combining Niels unique approach to bass clarinet and impressive arsenal of saxophones and other acoustic and electronic wind instruments and effects with the arranging and production skills of Richard, who is also responsible for all other instruments (keyboards, drums, electronics) and artwork. Broken beat lovers will appreciate the versatile rhythmic drive, sometimes complex, but always dedicated to the groove, whereas ambient fans are treated to some lush textures, delicately woven by electronica and a wide range of (manipulated) brass and wood wind instruments.
