Album Description

On bc≥ad, Collective Acoustics aims to bring an organic approach to electronic-influenced music. While the end result straddles the electronica, ambient, jazz, and world music fences, all performances and sounds are created by musicians playing live instruments. No Loops. No Samples. NO MIDI.

Tastefully minimal without monotony, bc>ad is a collection of powerfully subtle pieces each building upon the previous with an audiophile’s sense of sound and balance. Each track presents a fresh mood, maturely keeping tabs on the trio's vast musical vocabulary. The group explores genres and themes that are linked by simple structures, resulting in expressions from jazz to post-rock to breakbeat and beyond. With this unique release, Collective Acoustics will deny and maybe even confirm your wildest categorizations.

An organic approach to electronic-influenced music. Resulting in a sound that straddles the electronica, ambient, jazz, and world music fences.
