Shabason & Krgovich - At Scaramouche (2022) Hi-Res

The Canadian supertrio gave us a high-end record where ambient, new age, sophisti-pop and jazz influences are sublimely distilled. Two years later, we try the experience again with their new album entitled At Scaramouche.

On the program for this new journey, we find Nicholas Krgovich and Joseph Shabason. Exit Chris Harris, too bad for him. The important thing is to know what the duo has in their stomachs and oh miracle, we always feel this bliss and this sweet nostalgia when listening to these nine contemplative compositions.

Less ambient and more jazzy than Philadelphia, Nicholas Krgovich's interpretation continues to sublimate the airy and warm arrangements of Joseph Shabason, especially when listening to "Soil" as an opening before we let ourselves be carried away by so much sweetness. with “In The Middle Of My Day” and “What Comes Back”. The duo allows themselves more experimentation and more dissonance, especially on "I Am So Happy With My Little Dog" and on "Soil II", which explains this less accessible side than Philadelphia. With the exception of the far too kitsch "I'm Dancing", At Scaramouche brilliantly fulfills the contract where the Toronto duo continue to transport their audience in the most magical way possible.
