about

"Amateurs” sees the incredible vision of Les Agamemnonz mature into a gorgeous, smart and evocative collection of soundscapes. It combines the dripping reverb and dance beat of early 60s surf music with the cinematic orchestral textures of mid-century Western film scores. Recommended for fans of Ennio Morricone, The Shadows, and The Ventures
