why we love this

Soft, tight drumming elegantly combines with transient piano sounds and sparse bass lines. A meditative piece of music at a steadfast pace.

about the record

Runden is a collaboration by Martin Brugger, Simon Popp (both of jazz quintet Fazer), and pianist Carlos Cipa. While Cipa’s solo works build on clear harmonies, for the recordings of Runden he prepared the piano to make it sound like a faintly tonal percussion instrument and his mechanical patterns contrast the syncopated drum grooves of Popp and the deep and sparse basslines of Brugger. The musicians explore, over the course of seven tracks, the concept of circular music. Each piece is based on a four-bar-motif played in a loop and varied subtly but steadily over time, creating a sense of eternal recurrence and timelessness. This makes Runden a meditative but demanding record, that only grows with every listen.
