Nestegg by Spoonbill

"If you can imagine The Avalanches’ cut-and-paste sampledelica lost in rural Australia on some head-melting LSD, then you’re at least halfway to understanding the craziness that Melbourne’s Spoonbill has concocted” – Time Off.

Propelled by the massive response from local and international audiences, and the successful release of his debut album Megafauna, Melbourne-based electronic producer Spoonbill lays his anticipated second album: Nestegg.
Spoonbill’s latest call from the wild is both cerebral sonic entertainment and smoothly-beaten groove, coming together as a heavily edited fusion of live recorded instrumentation and fabricated electronica. From antique tones to genre-warping sound art, Nestegg is a mastery of chaos. Enticing listeners with its smooth, shiny shell of downtempo tunes, Nestegg breaks open to reveal a thick and fast-flowing yolk of intricate beat chemistry.
Within the nest is a selection of crafted recordings of premium Australian musicians such as Eden Altman, Bryson Mulholland and James Maguire, playing guitar, rhodes piano and double bass. Their performances captured in the studio are cut, twisted and reformed into new shapes, giving the Spoonbill sound its iconic collage aesthetic.

“Built upon a rich tapestry of uniquely Australian samples, Spoonbill has created a modern Australian masterpiece.” (InTheMix).
