Binker & Moses: Feed Infinite
ByThe track retains the duo's raw, romping, in-the-moment, acoustic visceralism but adds tape loops and electronic manipulation, courtesy of honorary third member, Max Luthert. It is an approach that was hinted at on the last Binker & Moses single, 2020's "Village Of The Sun" (Gearbox). It is here more fully realised.
Says Boyd, "We had no material planned, just a concept. We took a huge leap of faith and went in the studio empty-handed. The only concept I had was this idea of feeding our improvisation through these different machines and configurations in the studio." Most of what you hear coming from the modular are reconfigurations of acoustic sax and drums.
The press release mentions the "a" word, but do not be alarmed. Brian Eno, who should know, defines ambient as something which "does not demand the listener's attention, but rewards that attention if it is given." After a few uncharacteristically well-behaved minutes, "Feed Infinite" builds into something that occupies centrestage and insists on your attention, which it rewards in spades.
