about

(ENG)
Korto is a diesel motor launched without mercy on the highway of supersonic kraut rock married to space punk and drugged by synthetic pop.
Backed by a burning bass/drum, between psychedelic steamroller and afrobeats, an acidic or graceful guitar, and some nonchalant vocals, the trio is outside of any weary labels : Korto is not heir of an era or from a movement, but rather of an image that we’ve given carte blanche.
Korto is a 3-wheeled race car that combines the past to future, advocates free public transportation and doesn’t order dessert at a restaurant. The band would invite Turing Machine, The Ex, The Young Gods, Goat or even Fela Kuti for a meal in a road house and leave without paying for it.

(FR)
Korto est un moteur diesel lancé sans pitié sur l’autoroute d’un kraut rock supersonique, pacsé au space punk et drogué à la synthèse pop. Porté par un basse/batterie brûlant, entre rouleau compresseur psychédélique et afro beat, une guitare acide ou gracieuse et un chant nonchalant souvent en nappes feutrées, le trio se détache des étiquettes douteuses : il n’est pas héritier d’une époque ou d’un mouvement, mais plutôt d’une image à laquelle on donne carte blanche.
Korto est un bolide à 3 roues qui conjugue le temps qui passe au futur, prône la gratuité des transports en commun et ne prend pas de dessert au restaurant. Il inviterait Turing Machine, The Ex, The Young Gods, Goat ou encore Fela Kuti pour un plat du jour dans un routier, et partirait sans payer.

Masana Temples

Entrance is a beautiful opener. Nana literally has a sitar solo at the end which is insane... Nothing more needs to be said. Majupose has a sick bassline and it's in 7/4 which is cool, and Dripping Sun is a sonic experience that speeds up and down through multiple time signatures. This album is definitely the chillest thing they've released so far. Also the first vinyl I've bought on Bandcamp :) CRAZY PSYCHEDELIC ALBUM!!! naakz
