Bio
Kiki Bohemia and Slow Learner deal in static laments, glacial love songs and bad memories. In their minimal sound, made up from piano loops, some effects, the odd rhythm pattern, and voices drifting through space or massing up to parade like a funeral procession, they excercise some private tribalism that references 80s pop noir, abstract Kunstlieder and Nico’s early reports from behind a mental iron curtain. Yet if the overall air resembles Nico’s collaborations with John Cale, with Nightwood the roles of female singer and male producer are reversed. Kiki Bohemia is applying the unique live looping skills of her solo performances (that saw her share stages with Dälek, Bracken, Rocko Schamoni and Jarvis Cocker) to creating homegrown epics for Slow Learner’s eulogies about love fading into betrayal to unfurl in. Slow Learner’s bleak yet affecting delivery, using simple imagery to at times chilling effect, and Kiki Bohemia’s widescreen super 8 soundscapes and occasional haunted house vocals conjure up visions of winter lost cities, hearts below zero and sojourns in permanent dawn. .... We are very happy to be part of THIS IMMORTAL COIL: The dark age of love...It is a wonderful Coil tribute album which features such amazing artists as Bonnie Prince Billy, Matt Elliott, Yann Tiersen, DAAU, Oktopus, Christine Ott & Nightwood and will be released by the end of october on Ici d'ailleurs.
