Beneva vs. Clark Nova was named The Silent Ballet's 'Band of the Week' last week, describing Sombunall in a short article as "the most impressive "folktronic" release since Four Tet's mesmerizing Rounds back in 2003".

The Sombunall track '88 Kilos of Excrement' is included on The Silent Ballet's free mp3 compilation Volume 7.

Out now!

Beneva vs. Clark Nova - Sombunall
Mix the off the wall pop sound of Hanne Hukkelberg and Silje Nes with the electro-acoustic world of Four Tet, the complex rhythms of Autechre, the indietronica of Broadcast, plus a good dose of charm, melodic oddity and some introverted enthusiasm, and you’ll maybe get a grasp of what Sombunall is all about.
