The Monsoon Bassoon

The Monsoon Bassoon were a London based rock band, who existed between 1995 and 2001. Their music can be described as psychedelic rock or math rock, although their songs were often characterised by sudden changes in direction or mood. Regular features of their songs were alternating & simultaneous male and female harmony vocals, woodwind parts, poly-rhythmic sections, time changes and unusual scales. Although sometimes sounding chaotic, their music was carefully planned to the last note.
