“Black Period  it’s an absolutely gorgeous piece of music. It’s plucked from their Ptakh_Jung debut EP which came out in 2018 and they remain an underground concern but definitely have the potential to do some damage overseas and earn some ace festival slots at places such as Transmusicales and Sonar, who recognize quality electronic music.”
