JON BALKE & SIWAN bring a fusion of sounds on their latest album, "Haflin." This Norwegian group is known for their experimental approach to music, incorporating elements of jazz, traditional Middle Eastern and North African music, and even electronic beats. The album kicks off with the mesmerizing track "Almnara," setting the tone for what's to come. Balke's intricate piano melodies dance beautifully with the haunting vocals of Siwan and the authentic Middle Eastern instruments. It's a musical journey that transports you to another world, a world where boundaries between genres don't exist. Tracks like "Kumul" showcase the group's ability to seamlessly blend traditional Arabic scales with modern jazz sensibilities. The result is an intoxicating mix of sounds that will leave you wanting more. But it's not all smooth sailing on "Haflin." The meandering structure of some tracks can feel a bit disjointed at times, leaving the listener longing for a stronger sense of direction. Overall, JON BALKE & SIWAN's "Haflin" is a bold and ambitious statement from a group unafraid to push the boundaries of conventional music genres. It may not be for everyone, but for those willing to take the plunge, it's a journey worth embarking on. In the words of Siwan herself, "let the music take you where it will." Verdict: 7.5/10
