Description
Ikarus is a contemporary/groove/jazz quintet consisting of Ramón Oliveras (composition, drums), Anna Hirsch (vocals), Andreas Lareida (vocals), Lucca Fries (piano) and Mo Meyer (upright bass).
'Mosaismic' is a record of beautiful contrasts. It's minimal and austere formally, yet rhapsodic in effect. From a compositional point of view the songs have a tendency towards straightforward, linear melodies - written against each other. As they evolve, they perpetually produce new harmonic and rhythmic relationships. The effect is an ever-shifting sound mosaic, a sonic mobile of sorts.
Their singular sound is based on continuously permutating polyrhythms, fluctuating grooves, organic improvisations and an enchanting blend of male and female vocals. The compositions continue to evolve thanks to the nature of their live shows, and tend to reappear in new versions on their full-length records. They cite influences as far- ranging as Morton Feldman, Meshuggah, The Knife, Craig Taborn, Steve Reich and traditional West African rhythms.
This is Ikarus' third LP on Nik Bärtsch's boutique label Ronin Rhythm Records, they have also toured Europe and Japan extensively.
