Microwolf; My Cauliflower Ears

Dutch musician Benjamin van Vliet is a collector of sounds and he uses plenty of them on his new album My Cauliflower Ears by his one-man project Microwolf. It's a genre-defying album, with elements of folk, Krautrock and avant-garde, all served up at a leisurely pace.

His vocals hover slightly his intricate musical tapestries, telling autobiographical stories in almost off-handed way. Van Vliet's mastery as a craftsman to stitch together his compositions comes to the fore even more with the instrumental version of the album. He used a different running order, although he choose not include the soft post-industrial pull of Sad Collector. My Cauliflower Ears is an intriguing piece of work that will appeal to fans of adventurous lo-fi and avant-garde. It gently buzzes and tunnels its way into the brain when using headphones, killing off any trace of lingering ear-worms in the process.
