SENSAROUND

‘Sounds of seeming substance loom out of a swirling mist of smaller sounds but then dissolve, so all is ephemeral and ghostly. Just like life.’ John Shand (review of Isotopes)

Alister Spence - Fender Rhodes, pedals
Raymond MacDonald - alto and soprano saxophone
Shoeb Ahmad - samplers, pedals

Australian/Scottish electro-acoustic trio, Sensaround works in a unique middle ground between melodic jazz ambience, ghostly dub and post-punk experiments as lo-fi rhythms press up against woodwind melodies and Rhodes tones set awash in free percussion. Their improvisations can be brief fragments or longer journeys.

Sensaround has released three CDs on HellOsquare Recordings - Isotopes (2014), Travelogue (2016) and heart/noise (2019).
