Swiftly chasing their greatest hits retrospective, Un1verse City shows how Arqa retain their relevance in the global fusion arena. The two decades-plus longevity of this sprawling collective marks the Suns out as true pioneers of Asian dubbery and ethnographic psychedelia. Deep bassman Michael Wadada is their eternal figurehead, but Kadir Durvesh and N Magriel are also firmly ensconced sidemen, playing shehnai (reed flute) and sarangi (a box-like bowed instrument, with no shortage of sympathetic strings). Wadada also continues his collaboration with Hungary's Arqa equivalent, Laszlo Hortobagyi & The Gayan Uttejak Orchestra, these sessions also recorded in their Budapest studio. The musical template is made up from Indian raga rules, but heavily interfered with by electronic tomfoolery. Geshela Ngaqang Sherap's meditational chants accumulate low tones, surrounded by liquid sarangi flourishes and nasally piercing shenai trills. All tracks are fully extended, the opening "Bhairagi Bardo" swirling around in the spiritual ether until, four minutes in, Wadada's brutally bloated dub bass splits its sphincter. Then, "Gawoti-Thanam" enters abstract realms, swathed in atmospheric drones and groans, while "El-Horto-Ang" is the album's wild centrepiece, a freak-out odyssey oddity, disjointed and unpredictable, churning up a miasma of oil-and-water samples.Tracklist:
