  • Description

    Orfeo 5 play what might best be described as improvised narrative landscape music, their pieces evolving over time to create a sense of place and journey. Their influences include Alex Cline, Jon Hassell, Evan Parker and Nils Petter Molvær, among others, and out of these they create a powerful blend of jazz, improv, folk, dub, sound art & electronica.

    "There are still soloing moments to tickle your brain's jazz center, but there are also passages where it's a little difficult to tell which instrument is making which sound. Those moments create some of the album's most intriguing heights." - MEMORY SELECT
