Etceteral (Futuristic jazz trio | Ljubljana)

Etceteral are a Slovenian experimental trio (saxophone & electronics, drums, visuals) who create a propulsive, polyrhythmic futurist jazz. It is a sound marked by abstract modular explorations, hypnotic drumming, ricocheted horn textures and crystalline production. Interzones between Dub, Krautrock, Afro-rhythms, free improvisation and quantized electronic music are brightly lit on this thrilling album.


„Slovenian future-jazz-tronicatrio’s quixotic second album… makes for intriguing listening, as the trio’s playing doesn’t settle for too long into anything overly comfortable. There’s a prickliness to tracks like “Rome Burns“: even when they fall into a propulsive groove, with Radiophonic Workshop glitches orbiting the drummer’s relentless drive, something will start to gnaw at the music’s spine, or try to topple the construction.” 7/10 UNCUT

“From Slovenia, an irresistible splurge of jazz sax, krautrock grooves and heavy modular doom that should excite fans of Bent Arcana, Holden/Zimpel and The Comet is Coming.” Uncut
