about

"the practice of tying one's soul to something tangible"

Bondye
- As among the Yoruba, Vodouisants must also recognise Bondye as the first and the last.

Bondye was recorded and produced within three weeks. Most if not all instrumentation heard on the album are outcomes from recording and manipulating found sounds such as: doors, cars, people etc.

This is the first EP by Hounfour.

"Moreover, there’s a neurotic-yet-banal element to the recordings, with delay, panning and bitcrushing employed beautifully to disorient and jitter the listener at every step; the musical equivalent of looking up just before you walk straight into a lamp-post. The six tracks are absorbing and brooding without the need to veer into oppressive atmospheres, and at points could even be said to be danceable(!); captivating stuff to be sure." - D. Burke, Astral Noize
