Sungjae Son, Near East Quartet - Near East Quartet flac album

Billed since its 2009 inception as Near East Quartet, the elevation of saxophonist Sungjae Son's name reflects the saxophonist's status as founder and de facto leader of this South Korean outfit, which forges a contemporary path from traditional roots. Its only previous album, the instrumental Chaosmos (KT Music, 2010) featured two percussionists alongside Son and co-founder, guitarist Suwuk Chong

The South Korean Near East Quartet have been around since 2010 and their ECM debut is a dolefully dramatic affair, shot through with astringent beauty, born of tenderness and despair. It's a bit like an evolved Portishead but slowed down even further. If you were to look for Western parallels, there is something of Radiohead's portentous monotone, hovering around Suwuk Chung's long skeins of grungy guitar, locked in a one-chord groove
