Four years after their widely acclaimed long-play debut A Clear Running Stream, Ghent's Little Dots finally appear again in the musical firmament. In the meantime, a few things have changed: the original trio, which could grow into an octet once in a lifetime, is on the new Do You Know How We Got Here? reduced to a duo. Moreover, the baroque, orchestral sound of the first album has been replaced by a sound that is considerably more minimalistic and electronic. Singer Sophia Ammann and multi-instrumentalist-producer Pablo Casella, still swear by real songs, but during the production process they have often provided their songs, with the help of Frederik Segers, with a repetitive groove or mantra-like atmosphere. On his new album, the company resolutely opts for a 'less is more' approach, although it speaks rather of an organic development than of a conscious choice.
