Now available on vinyl. Secret Rhythms seems like an apt title for Burnt Friedman & Jaki Liebezeit's music, focussing on the road less travelled when it comes to clamping down on those off-beat percussive narratives. Liebezeit's drumming style seems to drift further and further away from western conventions, aligning more closely with the instrumentation and patterns indigenous to Eastern and Middle Eastern cultures. Friedman's slick dub-influenced production fits in with this cross-cultural aesthetic exceedingly well, and there's something truly unclassifiable about the end product. While rhythm is always the cornerstone of Friedman & Liebezeit's compositions, there's always plenty of melodic flair in evidence, and downbeat jazzy pieces like 'Wirklich Version' standout as particularly special.
