Claude says:Plini is an Australian guitarist Steve Vai called "the future of exceptional guitar playing" — he makes melodically rich instrumental prog that fuses jazz sophistication with the rhythmic heft of djent. This EP dropped the same year as his second album Impulse Voices, a quieter double-single with "birds" showing off his knack for simple, sticky melodies that never lean on flash. You gave it one spin in early 2024 and haven't circled back.
