Klangstrahler Project come through with one of the most interesting albums of 2007 on their new full-length release, ‘Pick Me Off The Dirt.’ In Shpongle-esque fashion, Klangstrahler present a conceptual chill/trance album that draws heavily on roots music of world cultures, and the flavors of choice are American Blues, Rock and R&B. I hear soulful, funky R&B vocals, dirty Dobro-style slide guitars, and Fender Strats wailing riffs Clapton would be proud of. All this meets up with ethno-chill and psy influences to create a wholly unique sound and style, unrestricted by genre norms and expectations. Definitely one of the coolest albums of this year and many previous.
