RATGRAVE – RATGRAVE
2018-07-30Some electronic strangeness from Apron Records (Hanna, AshTreJinkins) here. Max Graef and Julius Conrad, the duo behind Ratgrave, clearly approach what they do with a good sense of fun. If that wasn’t apparent from some of the track titles on their eponymous debut LP – ‘Big Sausage Pizza’, ‘Ubi Hubi’ and ‘El Schnorro’ are the front-runners here – then the wacky sounds within make it plain for all to see. Ratgrave’s style is largely based on bossanova and P-funk with the occasional bit of cosmic zaniness thrown in for good measure.
