Premiere: Tandreh—Ladoga (Bonambi Records)
Tandreh is the project of Georgy Sidorenko, a Siberian-born, Belgium-based musician and DJ, also known as Shorlax.
On “Swamp Reflections”, his tape-debut album on Bonambi, he chose to primarily compose on bass guitar, offering a captivating exploration—a quest both in minimalism and introspection.
The core of the journey is built around a raw sound that anchors the music in a sense of organic, almost primitive energy. This focus on his favorite instrument is not only rhythmic but also textural, drawing the contours of melancholic and visceral music.
Through these 10 tracks, he weaves an intricate tapestry of abstract imagery and elusive themes, creating a narrative that is more felt than understood. Tracks like “Melted Walls” and “Pall Mall”, whose lyrics are both cryptic and impenetrable, contribute to the album's general air of mystery.
Tandreh has crafted an album that is as stimulating as it is intriguing, rewarding those who venture into its depths with an enigmatic and atmospheric experience.
