Our Take

BILL MACKAY & KATINKA KLEIJN's album "Stir" is a whimsical journey through an experimental soundscape that is both haunting and uplifting. The duo's unique blend of folk, jazz, and avant-garde influences creates a musical tapestry that is as unpredictable as it is captivating.

From the moment the first notes of "Stir" fill the room, listeners are transported to a world where musical boundaries cease to exist. Mackay's intricate guitar work weaves effortlessly with Kleijn's soulful cello, creating a dynamic interplay that is truly mesmerizing.

Tracks like "Whirlpool" and "Ripple" showcase the duo's ability to create intricate, textured soundscapes that are both ethereal and grounding. The delicate balance between Mackay's intricate fingerpicking and Kleijn's deep, resonant cello lines is a true testament to the duo's musical chemistry.

However, there are moments on "Stir" where the experimentation may veer a bit too far into the realm of the bizarre. Tracks like "Twist" and "Turn" push the boundaries of conventional musical structure, leaving listeners feeling a bit disoriented.

Overall, BILL MACKAY & KATINKA KLEIJN's "Stir" is a bold and adventurous exploration of sound that will undoubtedly appeal to fans of avant-garde music. While it may not be for everyone, those willing to take the plunge will find a musical experience that is as unconventional as it is rewarding.
