Support: Compro Oro
Ghent-based Compro Oro has been pursuing a quest for psychedelic sounds and jazz grooves from all corners of the world since 2014. This included the critically acclaimed ‘Simurg’, a collaboration with Murat and Esma Ertel of Turkish cult band BaBa ZuLa.
On their latest full-length, Compro Oro was triggered less by ethno and more by technology, both musically and conceptually. More synthesisers and electronics aptly season their typical musical marriage of vibraphone melodies and guitar riffs, jazz-funk rhythms, exotic percussion and dubby bass sounds.
