MINDTHEGAP Trio

MINDTHEGAP is an instrumental piano trio born in Transylvania that belongs to the new generation of cross genre Romanian jazz groups, with a unique style defined by a complex sound reminding of film music, nu jazz, fusion and progressive rock.
Despite the classic format of the trio (keys, bass and drums), MINDTHEGAP’s music creates a genuine blend of varied genres by using a modern approach of playing classical instruments, but also by adding different elements from electronic, rock and world music. 
Created by Ştefan ORMENIŞAN (composer, keys) in 2023 together with two young musicians, Alex CIOATĂ (composer, bass) and Tamás ISZLAI (drums), MINDTHEGAP has quickly gained recognition, playing at prestigious festivals in Romania, such as Garana Jazz Fest, Electric Castle, Jazz in the Park Competition and many others

Atempo

Active since: May 2, 2020

Atempo is an Israeli modern jazz piano trio formed in 2020 by pianist Itay Abramovitz, bassist Alon Stern and drummer Yoav Lachovitsky.

The trio creates original instrumental music rooted in jazz improvisation and shaped by Mediterranean, Balkan, Latin, African and Middle Eastern influences. At the center of Atempo’s music is the close conversation between piano, electric bass and drums, combining lyrical melodies, rhythmic movement and collective improvisation.

Over the years, the trio has developed a distinctive musical language that its members describe as the Atempo sound. Rather than simply placing different styles side by side, Atempo transforms its diverse influences into a unified language of its own. Lyrical melodies, unexpected rhythmic patterns, collective improvisation and the warm, grounded sound of the electric bass create music that can feel intimate and contemplative in one moment, and energetic and driven by groove in the next.
