Upstairs live room
The Cromagnon Band describe their approach to music as reverse engineering. Having earned their chops from years producing beats they switched directions and swapped MPCs for instruments.
But what they make isn’t simply instrumental hip hop. Rather, it’s the sound that haunts the dreams of beat diggers and obsessive record collectors alike.
The Brackish sound is characterised by its use of dynamics, long-form composition and improvisation. Face-melting heaviness gives way to gentle, spacious, improvised soundscapes, often within a single piece. Kraut-like grooves, polyrhythms, violent melodic statements and psychedelic, free-form improvisation are present in equal measure. Always expressed with a strong emphasis on melody and narrative, aiming to take the listener on multiple journeys of much-needed escapism.
