Album Description

Debut-album from young Danish jazz 5-tet. ”Caktus. Two double basses leaning on the side. One drumkit. Alto saxophone in silver. One in gold… Silence rests outside… A fluttering fog honks in the horns and ’Strong Current’ breaks out in the drums and on the basses… Here are new roles for the instruments. The hierarchy has dissolved. One united orchestra. Not a solo, solos, the usual tour around. Instead just a passage for one instrument or two. Composition with the focus on the doubled instruments. It creates unique possibilities for sound and resonance.” (Sonja LaBianca, Dagbladet Information, juli 2018) Caktus’ music can be described as being in between fragility and strength – beauty and wildness – chamber music and grooves. Caktus is almost a double trio, with two double basses and two saxophones, and with this mirroring of the instruments and in the sound, it gives inspiration to also mirror, twist, wring and challenge themes and melodies. The group was founded in 2017 and with front-woman Maria Dybbroe, Caktus has already gained a lot of attention on the Danish Jazz scene. One “of the Danish autumns most interesting album releases” (…) ”Pleasant impressive and delightful uncontrollable compositions” (...) “The double basses walk heavy and dance dissonant at the same time. And the saxophones either merge fingers, or run away from each other screaming”. (Louise Rosengreen, Information, 2020) released September 2, 2020 Compositions by Maria Dybbroe Recorded by Jacob Worm and Rasmus Juncker Mixed by Rasmus Juncker Mastered by Taylor Deupree Coverart by Erlend Eggestad
