    Description

    Velspillet kosmisk hybridjazz fra Flandern
    Kan du lide kosmisk hybridjazz med forsvindingspunktet indstillet på uendeligt? Så har du noget til fælles med den flamske gruppe Black Flower. Med finesse og skyhøj musikalitet blander den fem personer store gruppe dub, syrejazz og afrobeat med påvirkninger fra den mægtige etiopiske jazzmester Mulatu Astatke. Resultatet er dunkel, dyb og funky hybrid-jazz, der flyder federe end lava. Det er tilladt at lægge sig ned på gulvet og kigge ud i galaksen, når Black Flower rammer ALICE.

    Black Flower er sandsynligvis det mest syrede indslag på den belgiske jazzscene. Gruppen har saxofonisten og fløjtenisten Nathan Daems i spidsen. For ti år siden forankrede han gruppen i en vision om at bygge intense drømmeverdener funderet på en dyb kærlighed til 1970’ernes Ethio-jazz og pioneren Mulatu Astatke. Med et ståsted i den belgiske jazzscene sammensmeltes den fritænkende og fabulerende Ethio-jazz med afrobeat og dub. Som gruppe udviser de en slående musikalsk præcision, hvor hvert eneste instrument får lov at tage plads i lydbilledet, med en hypnotisk dybdevirkning til følge.

    Med det seneste album ‘Magma” befinder Black Flower sig på højdepunktet af deres kreativitet. Efter at have modtaget rosende ord for albummet 'Future Flora' fra 2019 fra Mojo, Songlines, BBC Radio 6-værten Gilles Peterson, BBC Radio 3's Music Planet, Worldwide FM og Jazz FM blandt andre, omfavner det kommende album 'Magma' nye synth- og orgellyde fra bandets nyeste medlem, Karel Cuelenaere, hvis tangentspil tilføjer en rundtosset og drillende stemning til musikkens skiftende stemninger. Andre steder er de rullende trommemønstre og flygtige, fløjtedrevne numre rige på kalejdoskopisk tekstur og yderst behageligt flow. Mellemøstligt inspirerede melodier fungerer viser vej ind i lydbilledet på lige fod med pulserende og tranceskabende dynamikker.

    Live består gruppen af Nathan Daems på saxofon og fløjte, Jon Birdsong (dEUS, Beck, Calexico) på kornet, Simon Segers (Absynthe Minded, De Beren Gieren, MDCIII) på trommer, Filip Vandebril (Lady Linn, The Valerie Solanas) på bas og Karel Cuelenaere (John Ghost) på tangenter.

    In English:
    Do you like cosmic hybrid jazz with the vanishing point set to infinity? Then you probably have something in common with the Belgian group Black Flower. With finesse and sky-high musicality, the five-member group blends dub, acid jazz, and afrobeat with influences from the great Ethio-jazz master Mulatu Astatke. The result is dark, deep, and funky hybrid jazz that flows smoother than lava. You're allowed to lie down on the floor and gaze out into the galaxy when Black Flower take the stage at ALICE.

    Black Flower is a band at the peak of their creative powers. Having received glowing praise for the 2019 album ‘Future Flora’ from Mojo, Songlines, BBC Radio 6 Music’s Gilles Peterson, BBC Radio 3’s Music Planet, Worldwide FM and Jazz FM among others, forthcoming album ‘Magma’ sees Black Flower embrace new synth and organ sounds from the band’s most recent recruit, Karel Cuelenaere. His influence can be heard from the outset – his keys adding a swirling, mischievousness to album opener and title track ‘Magma’. Elsewhere, the shuffling drum patterns and flighty, flute-propelled ‘O Fogo’ are rich in texture and flow.

    The band is centered around Nathan Daems on saxophone and flute. Fellow musicians and spiritual henchmen are Jon Birdsong (dEUS, Beck, Calexico) on cornet, Simon Segers (Absynthe Minded, De Beren Gieren, MDCIII) at the drums, Filip Vandebril (Lady Linn, The Valerie Solanas) at the bass and Karel Cuelenaere (John Ghost) on keys.
