Electronica without Borders

Border Movement reviews Kalinihta as part of a lovely piece on Bangalore’s alternative electronica scene.

“The songs on the album quiver and tremble dangerously over forty long minutes. Alexis D’Souza’s voice loosens the tension slightly on the parts that she sings over. Eponymous tracks Boy On A Burning Deck and Kalinihta are album highlights, stealing the show by being huge, menacing sonic walls threatening to crash over you at any given point.”
