IC-01 Hanoi
While recording Unknown Mortal Orchestraâs latest release, Sex & Food, Ruban Nielson, his longtime collaborator Jacob Portrait and his brother Kody Nielson, found themselves in the Vietnamese city of Hanoi at Phu Sa Studios. During the recording process for Sex & Food the band recorded live sessions with local musician Minh Nguyen on SĂĄo TrĂșc, ÄĂ n MĂŽi, and Vietnamese Percussion and the Nielson's father, Chris on Flugelhorn, Saxophone and keyboards. These sessions became IC-01 Hanoi: exploring the outer edges of the band's influences in Jazz, Krautrock, Fusion and the avant-garde. At its core Hanoi is a record of exploration, finding its closest antecedent in Miles Davisâ experimental On The Corner â itself a record full of nods toward avant-garde composers and Jazz outsiders alike. Hanoi finds Ruban amplifying and stretching out on lead guitar, with a blown-out and wandering fuzz tone that slinks throughout the sessions. The rest of the group match Rubanâs melodic diversions with aplomb, mining their talents to finding as easy a role in the fusion of funk as they do in the more ambient and abstract tangents on Hanoi.
