Notes.<\/strong>
\nIn celebration of Ben Peter Zimdahl of Jarrahdale WA, Zimdahl<\/em> is the first true release from Mudlark<\/strong>.
\nZimdahl<\/em> is a one and half year milestone demonstrating Mudlark\u2019s audacious sound arrangements. Through fine detail and detailed finds, Zimdahl<\/em> is released on vinyl \u2013 260 limited pressings via the Czech Republic, 12\u2033 DMM 180-gram 45rpm, with an insight into the design of Mudlark wrapped as a cover.
\nTracking five recordings live in studio by Nick McKenzie, \u00a0limited to two instruments, Zimdahl<\/em>\u00a0seeks sound as a space. With no re-amping or overdubbing, the mixing was arranged as though the band were performing live on stage, or as a canvas in front of the speakers. Using 3 guitar amps as a stereo wall of sound, and approximately 22 mics tracking percussion and guitar, allowed the duo to select the most relevant mic positions in the room. \u00a0With intentionally limited editing,\u00a0\u00a0Zimdahl<\/em>\u00a0aims for a truly accurate rendition of Mudlark\u2019s sound in a live application.
\n\u201cFive bristling, vibrant instrumentals that prove antsy and unpredictable. Certain guitar lines might trigger flashbacks to your old Tortoise records, but that\u2019s just the beginning of what goes on here.\u201d
\nMess + Noise<\/a>
\n\u201cA hard listening indie-jazz fusion cacophony that destroys your ability to think or reason; absorbing your thoughts until all that is left are electronic shivers and rolling rhythmic synapses.\u201d
\nThe Music<\/a>
\n\u201cA weird riddle, a fascinating and deeply enjoyable mystery.\u201d
\nCool Perth Nights<\/a>
\n\u201cLike a mix between instrumental hip hop, math rock and jazz. As hip hop breaks go, these are pretty savage and this isn\u2019t exactly Dilla, but it\u2019s pretty intriguing.\u201d
\n4ZZZ<\/a>
\n\u201cThe combustible combination of twisting rhythms and head spinning guitar made the debut full length from Perth two piece Mudlark one of the years most startling \u2013 and enjoyable \u2013 listening experiences. The sound Guitarist Steven Bovenizer and drummer Warsame Hassan create is rife with devilish contrast \u2013 structured yet improvised, dark yet bright, jarring yet constantly engaging. It\u2019s a truly unique sonic beast.\u201d
\nBandcamp Hunter \u2013 Best of 2014<\/a><\/p>\n

Biography.<\/strong>
\nBeginning mid-2012 out of Perth Mudlark are a bizarre blend of unique playing styles; guitar and percussion private between Steven Bovenizer & Warsame Hassan. Exhibiting instrumental song structures supporting a dream logic charged by heavily constructed rhythm changes, with the organic charm of digital music stylings they prove experimentation in a live application to be audience attentive. Meeting a new perspective of music the self taught two piece create an impressive distinction. Music as intended, ever-evolving.
