Beanfield - Seek FLAC download

Beanfield has always been attuned to downtempo jazz, and their 3rd album, SEEK, doesn't stray from this. Ernesto certainly adds some soul to the pizzicato strings of "Chosen" and the smooth house vibe of "Someone Like You." But it's Bajka who adds the most vocal spice, with her unique phrasing and moments of spoken word on "Tides" or the twinkling electro of "Home." But Beanfield does just as well with its instrumentals. Check out the upbeat organ chords and bleeping on "Vertigoheel" or the graceful clarinet and trumpet on "Cargo." A nifty little album.

Since the release of the last album much has changed in personell with Beanfield. Tobi Meggle has left the band to dedicate his time to his own projects. Left is long-time Beanfielder Jan Krause, who has gotten musical support from Michael Mettke (Trueby Trio, Fauna Flash). The new album is called "Seek", which was recorded it this new line-up. The record is more diverse than ever, combining Soul with Breaks, Jazz with Electronica. It all sounds very well-rounded and creates a nice atmosphere, very acoustic indeed. The first vocal-track with guest-vocalist Baika proves this already. Her unique voice transcends this song into something special. You can also hear on "Home". Other guests include Ernesto and Marzenka. Songs like "Someone Like You" feat. Ernesto give this album a special note as well. "Vertigoheel" and "Welcome" feat. Marzenka are somewhat electronical, making "Seek" nice, well-rounded record. A flawless, innovated piece of art. -c- ToxicTwinz
