JANTAR - Sempronia LP

Limited to 300 copies.

Brooklyn quintet, deeply involved in the Sunview Luncheonette scene, the roots of Jantar lie in a nameless experimental duo formed by Chad Laird and Tianna Kennedy in 2005 or so, but this duo has evolved into a working band with two distinct creative strategies.

One of their aims in make 'experimental easy listening music,' which involves working angles that are similar to film music, although perhaps with a bit of Stereolab poured on top.

Reminiscent of Canterbury classicism (Soft Machine, Hatfield and Gong) as well as certain West Coast underground of the early '80s (Monitor, Romans, Fibinaccis).
