Troyka - Troyka

Tracks:
01 - Tax Return
02 - Clint
03 - Born in the 80's

Troyka combines biting angular melodies with fractured rhythmic figures that once again blur the line between the composed and the improvised. Troyka are Chris Montague (guitars and loops), Joshua Blackmore (drums) and Kit Downes (organ), three young musicians based in London whose intense live shows have seen them hotly tipped to follow in the foot steps of Polar Bear and Portico Quartet and become the next young band to explode from the capital’s fertile jazz scene.

NQ - Inscription

Tracks:
01 - Glonn
02 - Oet
03 - Silver Lining

Inscription is a document of the life of a single person — filtered through the noise of the discourses that surround us and engrave themselves into us every day. It’s a witness to modern work life in capitalism and it shows how much influence the ethics of work and work in itself have even in segments of our live.
