The style is ambient layered analogue and electronic trio jazz. Easy listening, easy to like, but still with a complexity of layers that brings out new details every time you listen to it!
    Eventhough you hear influences from bands and musicians like The Necks, Ahmad Jamal, Herbie Hancock and Abida Parveen, TSC brings in fresh new inventions and dimensions to the piano trio format on, this, their first release.

About Music Fair Trade
Music Fair Trade in the brumtone shop means that all extra money you may choose to add to a product goes directly to the artist. We do this since brumtone artists and related artists in the shop are explorers in music and not compromise in style or quality and therefore rarely sell like pop artists. We appreciate there work a lot and feel they deserve an extra donation to be able to focus on their work in the future as well.
