Killer road - a tribute to Nico

"Soundwalk Collective is an electronic group featuring vocals by Patti Smith and percussion by her daughter, Jesse. Here, they use field-recordings from Ibiza to rework the poetry of Nico ... The effect can be sonically absorbing, if not as emotionally compelling as its creators might have hoped. It comes across like a chilling ASMR experiment mixed with something by Robert Ashley or Steven "Jesse" Bernstein".

"If Soundwalk Collective's music is often lovely but understated, Patti Smith's vocals give Killer Road the pale fire that makes it come alive; she never sounds like Nico, but she ably brings forth the voice of a poet facing her final crisis, and Smith understands that just well enough to communicate it to the audience".
