    "Like post-punk reference-point the Talking Heads, Konk apply the rhythms and melodies of Latin music within funk's staccato pulse. But while the Talking Heads' experimentation is contained in song forms, Konk maintain a funk-sprawl ideology in a system that foretells acid-jazz-- a slew of solos and sections announce themselves unprovoked over shifting grooves, creating non-linear yet highly organized multi-part jams. With several layers of live and electronic percussion, Konk compel movement. You don't need to dance to enjoy the music, but Konk won't likely do much for you if you're sitting still-- driving, running, cooking, or partying are all recommended Konk-enhanced activities." ----------------Liam Singer
