Description
2021, 2×12″ LP, Modern Recordings.
Moritz Von Oswald has always chosen his collaborators carefully, regularly changing the line-up of his “Trio” – a live performance-focused attempt to blur the boundaries between jazz and his trademark brand of deep, spaced out and hypnotic electronic music. On Dissent, the first MVO Trio album since 2015, the German veteran has been joined by Lauren Halo (an acclaimed electronic artist in her own right of course) and jazz drummer Heinrich. Musically, it’s a typically hazy and immersive affair, with meandering electric piano motifs, echoing electronic textures and uneasy synthesizer chords rising above weighty, sub-heavy grooves that add a dash of jazz and Latin swing to Von Oswald’s trademark dub techno sound. – Juno
