More The Avener More The Avener

This album is a lesson in smooth and laid-back instrumental house music.

There are wobbly keyboard lines, twangy guitar licks and plenty of well-placed bass lines that’ll have your foot tapping. The jazz-soul-meets-electro is a naturalistic fusion and the atmosphere is always thick enough to cut with a knife, enticing with an air of mystery and intrigue. It’s the kind of record an upper middle-class couple in their early 20s would cook dinner to before descending to the bedroom to do weird sex things in an effort to be edgy… yes, there are saxophones.
