Born in the Mátra, refined in Buda, but unveiled on the water. This is Ecosphere, the latest album by New Fossils. Hypnotic grooves, electronics, and jazz - just buzzwords to some, but we’re here to fill them with meaning on April 10th at A38. Come join our ecosystem, and if you like, get your hands on the fresh vinyl after the show.
New Fossils is a fresh local supergroup who also impressed the Icelandic band ADHD who once they had finished their own House of Music concert, watched the Hungarians in a house concert. The members of New Fossils are committed to constantly searching out new paths and the inherent tensions in opposites. Their music is permeated with a sense of languor, while the link to the latest wave of contemporary urban jazz evident in the end result is clear. Song-centric compositions are taken to a higher level, sometimes with electronics, sometimes through improvisation. They achieve this with consummate ease given that they were prominent figures on the Hungarian jazz and popular music scene as members of the Dresch Quartet or Mörk long before this band started. Their debut album was released in 2023 on their own label, Morotva Records.
