[ May the 27th, 2022 release on SOFA Records: Propan – Swagger ]
PROPAN release their new album Swagger on CD, LP and DL on SOFA on the 27th May 2022. An unusual sonic tapestry which is weaved around Duo’s voices with all sorts of beats, noises, samples, loops, crackles – you name it. All very surreal and hypnotic, but in the same time heeling and calming with its repetitive patterns and choruses. Nocturnal journey inside your own head.

[ 25th of March,2022 release on Rune Grammofon: Action & Tension & Space – Tellus ]
release date: 25.03.2022 on Rune Grammofon
The band describe themselves as a spaced out, instrumental lounge-rock outfit, with added elements of folk music, jazzy surf, psychedelia, free improvised chill-out, jangly post-rock and travelling bass. Not much for us to add here, apart from possibly a pinch of krautrock.
