Hästköttskandalen (HKS) är en audiovisuell kvartett bestående av svenska och amerikanska kompositörer och musiker - Ellen Arkbro, Marta Forsberg, Maria W Horn, Kali Malone och förr Elsa Bergman. HKS bildades våren 2013 och har sedan dess spelat och spelats på bland annat Sveriges Radio P2, Art's Birthday Party, Norbergfestival, Fylkingens 80-års Jubileum, Geiger och SEKT.

HKS's sound karaktäriseras av en tidlös ljudrymd där alla instrument lämnas lika stort utrymme. Musiken är en förening av art rock, slow wave och neo-psykadelika. Video-feedback i realtid och manipulation av analog film, fri improvisation och ljudsyntes. Akustiska stråkar blandas med elektriska gitarrer och ljudet av en 8mm-film-projektor.

“Våt asfalt, speglingar av neon, avlägset brus, allt sånt verkar de ha lyssnat in och processat till en högre dimension, mer hemtam för äventyrliga varelser som lever bland norrsken och galaxer än för oss vanliga stadsbor.” - Camilla Dal, Gefle Dagblad 2014-10-20

“Hästköttskandalen är det bästa som hänt Sverige på länge, då i musikalisk mening.” Alexandra Sundqvist, Situation Stockholm 2014-02-19

“Klanger, spröda sångmelodier som dansar ovanpå den harvande monotonin. Röster och toner som tvinnas samman och blir till ett rep, nedsänkt i djupet. Ett rep att klamra sig fast vid. En liten, men skimrande känsla av solidaritet, demokrati och framtidstro.” - David Olgarsson, 2014-01-03

"The paradox of an infinite string of unique moments informing the repetitive nature of being. The Unification of Inner and Outer Life as the last track’s title suggests? That’s probably impossible. But this album might help getting closer to that goal. Music triggering the weight and scale of the human experience." my review on Veil of Sound: https://veilofsound.com/2024/02/26/Kali_Malone-All_Life_long.html Der Ohlsen

I love it because throughout and in particularly in Glory the music reminisces Kraftwerk (II - Wellenlänge). Maybe it is pure coincidence - due to scale chosen and instrumentation. Maybe a cool move. Very lovely. Slow groove. nederlanditis
