Empty Space On A Chessboard

"quarrel"
Honing their skills over the past year or so, this ambient/electronic group finally released their debut EP, "Quarrel" in April. The six tracks are definitely not music you can dance to, but if you want to be transported to a lower-consciousness state of chill, this would be the disc for you.

ESOAC started out as the duo of Lu Lu-Ming on the keyboards/electronic gadgets, and Arny (ex-Maho/Naff Off) on bass. They've since added Bugs Of Phonon guitarist Koko to the lineup. When they performed as a duo, they would augment their shows with video accompaniment, giving a complete audio-visual experience. With the addition of the third member, the live show is now more focused on the music.

Have you ever tried those self-help CDs that 'stimulate brain waves with binaural beats'? Yeah, me neither, but ESOACs new CD can likely accomplish the same thing, but with way more enjoyment.
