Details
Flute Boy is a harbinger of the forthcoming debut album Songs for Broken
Ships by MD Pallavi and Andi Otto. The two tracks are physically
exclusive to the 7“ single but are in the digital package of the LP
album.
Flute Boy is a folktronica lullaby, a cute waltz with
traces of dub and acid in the finish. The B-side, Look Again, presents
an almost neoclassical ballad with MD Pallavi's vocals floating
expansively over a wonderful framedrum groove.
MD Pallavi &
Andi Otto first crossed paths on a theatre stage in India ten years ago.
They started collaborating instantly and in 2016 MD Pallavi's
mesmerizing vocals for the downtempo raga Bangalore Whispers warmed
hearts and ears. Their musical relationship flourished with artistic
residencies in Bangalore and Hamburg, their respective hometowns, and a
concert tour in Japan.
On their new recordings, MD Pallavi
contributes songwriting for poems in her native Kannada, one of India's
many languages. Andi Otto co-composed and produced the songs. The
process took three years, and the results show an interwoven aesthetic
vision of two artists with their contrasting musical backgrounds.
MD Pallavi is a singer, actress, filmmaker and performer from
Bangalore, South-India, where she trained in Hindustani music and
performed poetry since childhood. Andi Otto is a composer, cellist and
DJ from Hamburg, Germany, known for his idiosyncratic and unconventional
dance music productions for labels such as Multiculti, Shika Shika and
Pingipung.
