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.
