Taiga Trans, the debut album from Fauna, is a hypnotic collision of krautrock propulsion, psychedelic ritual, and subterranean rave energy. The eight-piece Swedish outernational co llective channels a multicultural, multidimensional sound that feels both deeply rooted and otherworldly. Think Goat’s feral mysticism, Can’s motorik drive, and a dancefloor at its most transcendental. Electronic textures whoosh like solar winds. Quiet percussion sighs and chatters. A jaw harp sets up a twanging bounce. An ancient saz introduces a taut riff. Suddenly a high-strung electric guitar scorches and a deep, booming bass groove drops with a four-to-the-floor kick drum thud. Welcome to the mysterious world of Fauna. Since forming around three years ago, the Gothenburg-based group have forged a singular sound, proposing an imaginary world somehow outside of history. It’s a sound of cultures and philosophies entwining, creating a liminal space where traditional acoustic instrumentation meets electronic innovation. A place where new worlds are born. Show more
