I loved their first album and they deliver again. This one might be more conceptual and psychedelic, very retro and lovely too! Give it a listen and find some interesting ideas in it. Already looking forward to part II!
A great jazz album with 7 string guitar and saxophone! Sam gendel delivers catchy and clever melodies and Fabiano put up different moods and rhythmic structures - instant love! hopefully this is not their last attempt as a duo. Recommended for fans of smooth and colorful and aesthetic jazz!
This album is one weird masterpiece. Killed my turntable needle a while ago and looked for music to fill the spot - blueblue did. A unique, dreamy, foggy weird journey into contemporary jazz. Love it since the first time listening!
If you're up to some interesting progressive rock music that ibhabits a lot lof other genres and ideas, you're in the right place here! Carpet always deliver. What do they deliver? Interesting song structures, psychedelic moods and their unique fingerprint. One of the best (german) bands out there! Thanks for another great album.
Oh wow! The album cover shows a glimpse of how colorful this music is! Playful, agile, masterful playing and arranging. A tasty bite for rhythm enthusiasts and entertaining and vivid until the last note. An interesting combination of modern jazz, latin and progressive structures. I wonder if both of Emilios hands are controlled by a separated brain, that stuff is tricky!
Super cool music for cool cats! love how the piano makes the stage and the others support it all the way. Catchy, sometimes simple, most of the time playful and bold and so groovy!
Float away people! i'd say this is ambient/film score created with an classical approach, hard to believe that you can do this with mainly woodwinds and brass. It's peaceful and yet epic, somehow the soundtrack of existence, also sad but free and calming. The Apex Twin covers are amazing.
This is definitely a release you would expect from Gondwana Records. As if some Alice Coltrane enthusiasts had also a faible for cinematic classical music and a choir to bring the music to life. Vibrant, playful and soothing!
I could go on and on about how these two fit together (heliocentrics) but I'd just recommend you to listen to this - funky, jazzy, entertaining, groovy and kind of the source of their other albums and song constructs. Catchy clever bass lines and can drumming 4 ever
Another great album by Sand Snowman! Dreamy, mysterious and perfect for the autumn. If you like experimental acoustic music and intelligent songwriting you should give this one a listen (and also to the album Sleepers Hide and Seek). Sweet one!
Finally the Heliocentrics put their discography on Bandcamp! This one is made for your next journey to the stars for sure - love how they re-use their great riffs and themes - in this record you can hear how the album "a world of masks" develops out of lots of interesting ideas - if you're a fan of psychedelic jazz with lots of world influences and kraut-beats from hell (or can) you're in the right spot!
Another great album by the heliocentrics, very playful and not aiming for a typical songwriting but exploring the possibilities of sound and shapes. Trippy, certain and raw. Love it!!
As always it's quite hard to pick a favorite here - they're all beautiful and interesting. If you don't know Matthew Halsall yet you'd give his works a listen - drown in colorful musical landscapes and circling rhythms and let the catchy melodies run through your mind! Jazz at it's finest for sure.
I guess you only need 10 seconds of a Chip Wickham song to tell who's the musician behind the soundscapes that crawl into your ear. His playing is distinctive and virtuosic and the themes for dreaming away. Sweet EP for fans of dreamy jazz with harp and earworm melodies from flute and sax!
So awesome to hear a new album by these amazing people! They kind of continue where the last album stops, lots of synth, cool hip hop drum n bass influcenced drums, creative harmonies and their unique fingerprint. If you don't know the breathing effect, you missed something so far. Thanks for this nice music dudes
Man i can't wait for the release - this band never disappoints! If you like Stereolab and Broadcast and the Heliocentrics, this should be interesting for you! Such a unique style and wonderful voice. Thank you for making music.
