Edge2.180 Mantra – Part II

Edge on repeat, yet again, by continuing, prolonging the mantra theme..Boukor in Groningen & remote Jeroen in Leeuwarden continued their search for mantras and found more 70s psychedelic krautrock (Popol Vuh, Zweistein) and 00s electronica (John benj). Then the black metal of Liturgy was mixed live with Terry Riley’s minimalist chance music, a nice combination of guitar and piano mantra music. Nordic atmospheres were introduced after the 10 commandments of how to behave in a cinema. And creepy Ligeti finished of the show, with a composition about spiders filling a bedroom with their webs..
I like repetitive music, we like repetitive music, we sure do. But we also like music with more chaos, contrast. So next week will go wildly astray, in proper Dutch, “van de hak op de tak” (“from the heel to the branch”).
