Today, we continue sharing our discoveries from the Trans Musicales festival in Rennes, France, where last December we captured twelve exclusive sessions. We’re sharing with you one unique session per week, and you can watch all the previously released ones here. This week’s feature is of One Sentence. Supervisor.

DJ Morgan says of the band:

The quartet met while they were young in Switzerland and all learned how to play their respective instruments together as a band. Once confident in their abilities, they began playing shows and recorded their first record in 2011. Since then they have toured in China and around Europe, including music festivals like The Great Escape festival in Brighton, UK where the Trans Musicales director Jean-Louis Brossard saw their set and invited them to play this year’s fest. For their KEXP session today, they played a new song they released online just 5 days ago called “Onomatopoeia” featuring Bahur Ghazi, who played a traditional Middle Eastern/North African type of lute called an oud, which is in the same family of instruments as the saz used by Altın Gün. It brought a new layer to One Sentence Supervisor’s sound that was already on the tip of their tongue; the oud fits really well with their motorik, hypnotizing guitar and bass lines. They released a full-length album in October 2016 called Temporär Musik that I highly recommend you check out as well.
