About

| New album 'quiero amor'bodies creates a hybrid sonic landscape where grooves and improvisations merge in raw energy. With saxophone, synths, and influences from various styles, the group builds soundscapes that are both layered and sensory.Inspired by artists such as Alabaster DePlume, Otis Sandsjö, and Small Medium Large, the group forges a unique and recognizable sound, drawing from Brussels' live electronic scene, free improvisation, and alternative pop.The album quiero amor (Igloo Records - 01/23/2026) is a journey that is both intimate and collective, inviting us to transform anger into joy.

This gathering is not only a source of joy and survival — a deeply human instinct — but also a powerful political act. In a world marked by division, bodies consciously choose connection, community, and a shared experience where music becomes a space for collective transformation.The Jazz Station (Brussels) at 38RivFranco-Belgian EncountersTo celebrate its 20th anniversary, the Jazz Station, a true home of Brussels jazz nestled in a former train station, sets up in Paris for a week. 38Riv offers it a carte blanche, symbolizing a rich and vibrant Franco-Belgian artistic encounter.
