Monde UFO follow the celebrated '7171' album with a trip to the mysterious 'Flamingo Tower'. In the shadows of the Los Angeles bustling music scene, the enigmatic collective led by visionary Ray Monde create a trance-like fusion of psychedelia and avant jazz, mantra-like evocations, brash moody ambience and passages reminiscent of long-lost library music. Magnifying Monde UFO's idea of musical chaos, their early sonic escapades into off-kilter exotica is now elevated with sweeping atmospheric waves of sound inspired by an eclectic brew of Arto Lindsey, Khan Jamal's 'Drum Dance To The Motherland', Keith Hudson, Milford Graves, Marion Brown, Don Cherry and Lennie Tristano. Cast deep into number theory with occasional quasi-religious touchstones, 'Flamingo Tower' bustles with background sounds overlaid with intimate melodies conjuring plenty of suitably strange illusions; a synthetic orchestra plays baroque pop, a guitar is set to auto destruct and Ray Monde's hushed vocals carry a bracing narrative. It's an evocative album, one for the heavy music nerds, sprinkled with ear candy and proliferated by mysterious numbers which litter the song titles. 'Monde UFO wander through a humid mist of exotic samba shuffles, shamanic whispers, and reverberating laser beam synthesizers.' New Commute
