In collaboration with Druga Godba, thrilling electro jazz astronauts The Comet Is Coming are returning to Ljubljana! Shabaka Hutchings, Danalogue and Betamax will take us to new sonic worlds with their brand new record!
Guru of the new London jazz scene Shabaka, sci-fi-inspired keyboardist Danalogue and rhythm-splicing drummer Betamax left us speechless for the first time at the Druga Godba festival in 2016. Four years later, they treated our Katedrala Hall to both a party and a show, according to Radiuo Terminal. By now, the intergalactic travellers have established themselves as one of the key names of the burgeoning jazz scene in the British capital, garnering critical acclaim with each new collection of their boundless musical expeditions, and performing at legendary festivals such as Glastonbury.
The transgenre comet is coming back to the Solar System with the new album Hyper-Dimensional Expansion Beam, which leads us towards new worlds and sonic vistas, ranging from the dreamy intensity of the track “Lucid Dreamer” to the bugged-out “Technicolour” and beyond, further, at the speed of light. The band’s most fully realised and deeply produced album is an expression of the unique unity and magical alchemy that amplifies the combined powers of these seasoned musicians to new heights and opens a portal to new universes and other dimensions. Join them in their atomic dance!
Veteran DJ, producer and musician Miha Šajina aka Shekuza, familiar from projects such as Moveknowledgement, Warhorse and Ewok, has recently focused his energy mainly on researching modular synthesisers and their sonic derivatives, which he also immortalszed on two independent albums, De Sica (2019) and Coriolis Effect (2020), for the experimental Ljubljana-based record label Kamizdat. He’ll put his knowledgeable approach to the dance floor to work ahead of The Comet Is Coming.
Tickets on sale online and at Eventim outlets.
Organisation: Druga Godba and Kino Šiška.
