about

With an arsenal of acoustic and electric instruments--ranging from harmonium, guitars, jaw harps, synths, and more--Sqwks meets the solitary Saxophonist, Kroba, on the sonic shores. The ensuing swells of The Incense Eaters create a meditative exploration through drone and melody. The four compositions seem to expand and contract into different shapes with every listen, new details and familiar feelings coming to the fore with each subsequent immersion.

With added care and technical magic from Oliver Chapoy, The Incense Eaters moves and breathes alongside a special physical package of scents, a cassette and writings from the artists themselves that have been printed locally (and lovingly) at Shoestring Press in Brooklyn. The Incense Eaters is released on February 29, celebrating the music's shape-shifting vibe of mutability and impermanence just in time for 2020's passing of the Leap Year.

Universal Beings
by Makaya McCraven

supported by 4 fans who also own “The Incense Eaters”

I was brought here after listening to a live performance of Makaya's on you tube. I instantly loved the song Holy Lands so much that I had to see if the album version was the same rendition as the live one. Then I listened to the whole album! Universal Beings is a just a groove... It's a mix of traditional and something new, very nice. pandr1900
