Jaga Jazzist - Pyramid (CD)

Jaga Jazzist - Pyramid (CD) Jaga Jazzist return with their new album Pyramid, where the legendary Norwegian eight-piece takes a deep dive into post-rock, jazz and psychedelia influences. ItÙs their first album since 2015Ùs Starfire, their ninth album in a career now spanning four decades, but it marks the groupÙs debut on Brainfeeder, the LA-based imprint curated by Flying Lotus. On Pyramid, Jaga Jazzist have crafted a suitably cosmic sound to match their new label home, all the while nodding to forebears spanning from 80s jazz band Out To Lunch and Norwegian synth guru Ståle Storløkken, to contemporaries Tame Impala, Todd Terje and Jon Hopkins. Each of the albumÙs four longform entries evolves over carefully plotted movements, the tracksÙ technicolour threads dreamily unspooling. TRACKLISTING 1. Tomita 2. Spiral Era 3. The Shrine 4. Apex
