{"product_id":"diasonics-ornithology","title":"Diasonics - Ornithology [Clear]","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"338\"\u003eFlight, freedom, and funk - \u003cem data-start=\"26\" data-end=\"39\"\u003eOrnithology\u003c\/em\u003e is The Diasonics spreading their wings wider than ever. Pressed on clear vinyl and released via Record Kicks, this sophomore album takes the Moscow quartet’s already distinct sound and pushes it into bold new territory, mixing cinematic textures with Eastern-tinged melodies and hypnotic grooves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"340\" data-end=\"869\"\u003eFollowing their acclaimed 2022 debut \u003cem data-start=\"377\" data-end=\"394\"\u003eOrigin of Forms\u003c\/em\u003e (which scooped “Library Music Album of the Year” at PopMatters), the band spent two years experimenting inside Studio 23, a custom-built haven tucked inside a former Soviet-era lamp factory. The result is a kaleidoscopic blend of funk, instrumental hip-hop, and analog soul that feels at once retro and futuristic. Tracks draw inspiration from the avian world—bird calls, flight, and the freedom of open skies—adding a conceptual depth that ties the whole record together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"871\" data-end=\"1268\"\u003eThe addition of vintage synthesizers gives \u003cem data-start=\"914\" data-end=\"927\"\u003eOrnithology\u003c\/em\u003e a shimmering edge, while Diana Greb’s ethereal vocals weave seamlessly through the instrumentation, breathing human warmth into the largely instrumental palette. It’s lush, adventurous, and deeply atmospheric—music that flirts with 70s library records, disco-funk, and Soviet jazz fusion but still sounds entirely unique to The Diasonics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1270\" data-end=\"1559\"\u003eWith its clear vinyl pressing, \u003cem data-start=\"1301\" data-end=\"1314\"\u003eOrnithology\u003c\/em\u003e isn’t just a sonic journey but a visual statement too, a collectible piece that stands out both on the shelf and on the turntable. For fans of Khruangbin, Surprise Chef, or just beautifully off-kilter funk, this record is essential listening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Owl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMockingbird\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeregrine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorm Petrel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuineafowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChickadee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCuckoo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54211787784521,"sku":"617308100822","price":0.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/7329\/9785\/files\/4449062-3430341.jpg?v=1776397990","url":"https:\/\/vintagespinvinyl.com\/products\/diasonics-ornithology","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
