PNAK

Bio:

.. Found this review of a gig we did in Oxford about a year and a half ago, and gasp, it was actually positive (even throwing in a reference to Fripp & Eno, blimey!). So here it is: . . . We’ve often supposed that Autechre came up with their song titles when they were losing at Scrabble - “Of course it’s a word, it’s a track on our new album!” – and Pnak must have got their name from the same place. Names, however, seem unimportant when the first track consists of gloriously greasy electronic tones smeared over some sprightly drumming, and sounds like Fripp & Eno’s No Pussyfooting being played at the same time as Teach Yourself Afrobeat. A couple of vocal loops aside this sets the tone for the whole of Pnak’s deeply satisfying performance. The abstract tones that are generated from a single Casio keyboard are incredibly visceral and inventive, and even if the drums could do with being a little more decisive, the effect is a surefire winner. from http://davidmurphyreviews.blogspot.com/ Live at the Grosvenor 5.4.08 Live in Shoreditch 24.11.08
