Voices Of Kwahn

Band, US
Dance and Electronic

Voices Of Kwahn are American vocalist (and performance artist) Anna Homler and multi-instrumentalist Mark "Pylon King" Davies. The single 'Colonist Dreamer' introduced their elegant fusion of quirky vocals and electronic/ethnic ambience. Originally, on 'Rebirth' (Max-Bilt, 1993), Nigel Butler was the keyboardist and the sound was a light patina of samples, dance beats, dub reverbs and vocal avantgarde (but Homler's contribution is minimal). Butler left, Davies absorbed ethnic influences and Homler's vocals became a staple of the dance/trance format (The Great Call, Silver Bowl) on 'Silver Bowl Transmission' (North South, 1996). 'Peninsular Enclosure' (Swarffinger, 1997) is less ethereal and, at times, almost industrial. Heavy on the samples and the percussions. The mini-album 'Operation Dismantled Sun' (Swarffinger, 1998) presents yet another version of Voices Of Kwahn, one that has left behind the ambient/new age leanings of the early albums (and Homler's vocals) and favors a harder, harsher, haunting approach.
