British synth wizard James Holden and Polish clarinet guru Waclaw Zimpel (Saagara, Shackleton) continue their fruitful collaboration with the blissful escapism of their lush album debut, The Universe Will Take Care Of You. A deeply emotive, warm and fuzzy delight, with rich textures and a beguiling sound palette, it roams freely between bucolic pastorals, insistent arpeggios and shimmering euphoria. Embracing the playful, experimental approach of their Krautrock forefathers to explore their deepest improvisational urges, this is the joyful convergence of two like-minded masters of their craft, weaving in violin, percussion, lap steel guitar and the Indian twin pipe algoza flute amongst the expected modular synth and clarinet.
