Jem Dalton performs an instrumental work that is epic, trippy, and dynamic. “Konsultanté K” is the ninth of twelve tracks Jem released in 2021, and it was published on December 31. Jem worked on this incredible track with Kevin Toublant on bass, Moog, and Jamie McCradie on guitar, and Dem Castellanos mixed and co-produced it.
I had conflicting feelings while listening to “Konsultanté K.”I thought it would be a terrific soundtrack for a space movie, but it’s tense and has a dramatic quality to it. Listening to this fantastic work with its psychedelic vibes and stoner rock tracks reveals how skilled and passionate these musicians are. The guitar riffs, along with the bass, create a liberated feeling, as if air is hitting you in the face as you chase the unknown. Parts like the 1:30 to 3:00 mark are mystical and thrilling. The tempo picks up, and all of the instruments combine together to create a fantastic tune.
“Konsultanté K” is part of a journey in which the album’s structure becomes apparent with each track, leading to the “Perfect Picture,” which is the album’s title and the sincere sensation you will be left with.
