Album Description
Multi-instrumentalist Roope & saxophonist Henri are on a mission to explore, understand, and tap into the cosmic flow of free musical expression. They met at art school back in 2014, where they began their initial sessions in the school cellar. After graduation, their journey included a hiatus and a fortunate reunion, ultimately leading to recording music together from 2019 to 2023. With their debut release, the ensemble is ready to play collectively improvised creative music. Band contacts below!
Roope Niemelä, guitar, keyboard, double bass, electric bass, flute, clarinet, trumpet, violin, alto saxophone, piano, accordion, percussion
Henri Ijäs, soprano and tenor saxophone, piano, percussion
Release date: Thursday 26.9.2024
The album is a two-part study of free expression in jazz music. Side A begins with “Emergence,” which was also chosen as a single release prior to the album launch, followed by “Mantra.” These tracks represent the group’s earlier works and are acoustic recordings. Side B continues the exploration, incorporating beautiful electronic elements into the play.
