Next up our Origins Tapes series is musician, producer, DJ and label owner Priori who is best known for their beautiful cross-over tracks and mixes and their label NAFF that they run with fellow artist Ex-Terrestial. 

Based and born Quebec and currently based in Montréal , Priori represents the Canadian dance music scene worldwide through both their individual output and their label’s. They have also become known for their technical ability in the studio which has led to them mixing projects for fellow artists such as Rosa Terence, Ex-terrestrial and Gene Tellem.

Priori’s hypnotic soundscapes have meant that they have the ability to create worlds around their audience with both their live shows, live DJ sets and online mixes and we are excited to be welcoming them for our Origins Tapes series.

Maks Yos - Dub Intro

Kommune Podcast #35 - Funes

Across eight tracks, Tilliander and Kajfeš masterfully balance slow, lumbering machine pulses, delicate synth textures, and impeccable trumpet lines. Tilliander’s use of both analog and digital synths carve out the structure of these sonic sculptures, while Kajfeš’s elegant trumpet playing pushes against them, infusing the dreamy soundscapes with both acoustic tension and melodic detail.

Individually, Andreas Tilliander and Goran Kajfeš have long been recognized as leading names in Swedish electronic music and jazz, respectively. Both have consistently pushed and transcended the boundaries of their genres. Tilliander has explored everything from techno, drones, and dub to clicks’n’cuts under monikers like TM404 and Mokira. Kajfeš has been a relentless innovator in jazz, playing a central role in bands such as Oddjob, Subtropic Arkestra, Tropiques, Nacka Forum, and Fire! Orchestra.

Now, they join forces, forging a new path for both ambient and jazz music.
