Our Take

Saadet Turkoz and Elliot Sharp's collaboration on "Kumuska" is like a whirlwind romance between a Swiss yodeler and a New York City avant-garde guitarist. The result is a blend of traditional Central Asian melodies and dissonant guitar riffs that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about music.

Turkoz's haunting vocals soar above Sharp's intricate guitar work, creating a sonic landscape that is both mesmerizing and unpredictable. From the haunting opener "Kor," to the frenetic energy of "Juggernaut," each track on "Kumuska" takes you on a journey through the vast expanse of musical possibilities.

The album's true highlight is the title track, a 12-minute epic that showcases Turkoz's otherworldly vocal range and Sharp's virtuosic guitar skills. The two musicians play off each other with a chemistry that is truly electrifying, creating a sound that is at once familiar and completely unique.

In conclusion, Saadet Turkoz and Elliot Sharp have crafted a masterpiece with "Kumuska," a genre-defying album that pushes the boundaries of traditional music. So grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let yourself be swept away by the magic of this extraordinary collaboration.
