An amazing second full length set from QUASIMODE - easily one of the most soulful combos working in the current club jazz underground. With a mixed club and Latin feel they deliver all their music live and so represent a new breed of Jazz bands who have gained a strong following with DJs and on the club circuit while all the time still thrilling live audiences. Their sound is based on authentic jazz rhythms from the 60s and 70s and has been linked with similar Jap-Jazz bands like SOIL & PIMP SESSION (BROWNSWOOD) and SLEEP WALKER.
