NAUSYQA

NAUSYQA are in a constant search for immersive sonic worlds. Through their dreamy curiosity and storytelling, they have crafted a blend of atmospheric post-rock and fierce grooves.
Inspired by the adventurous spirit of Hayao Miyazaki’s ‘Nausicaa and the Valley of the Wind’, the instrumental quintet combines the electronic with the acoustic, with soaring melodies, edgy improvisations and large soundscapes, a combination that has taken listeners on a journey with every performance.
Anaphora Trio

Queer pianist and composer Filippo Deorsola presents Anaphora, a piano trio that “switches and mixes several genres and rhythms in an incredibly mastered and enjoyable way” [Best of Jazz, US]. The music embodies a practice where non-European musical traditions are explored as rhythmical and timbrical spaces that can subvert, redirect and open up the trio’s interplay to unexpected grooves and surprising textures. Inviting listeners into a captivating exploration of sound.
Micheal Murray’s Colourfield

The aim of this project is to pursue a sound that is the culmination of major influences in my life, from music, art and poetry. This idea influences everything from the contribution of the individuals, to the compositional process, always trying to maintain a focus on the universal communal values of music that I hold in the highest regard.
