bebop and folk tunes

tailor-made for the stage

driving rhythm

but rather than deliver a stripped-down or back-to-basics approach to the Fruit Bats sound

her sound has come to contain both pedal steel and indie rock as well as soft vocals and R&B sensibilities

HARMONIOUS THELONIOUS - Grumpy Pieces HOTHOUSE FLOWERS bebop and folk tunesLP Standard Edition Black Vinyl. Musically, Grumpy Pieces draws from familiar territory within the Harmonious Thelonious universe: Pan African and Middle Eastern rhythmic concepts, repetitive minimal structures, stripped down electronics and noise used as a structural force. Yet everything here feels less fixed, more unstable, at times close to falling apart. Melodies grind against rugged bass foundations; dry snare hits cut sharply through the mix.
