Green vinyl. Munich quintet Fazer release their second album, Nadi. Nadi follows the underground success of their self-released debut Mara (2018), which quickly sold out and became one of the most-streamed jazz records of the year. Moving freely between composition and improvisation, the band's spacious, organic sound pitches lyrical melodies from guitar and trumpet over double-drummer polyrhythmic grooves and dub-like basslines. The album title Nadi references a term rooted in traditional Indian medicine. Nadis are channels that connect points of intensity within the body. This reflects the band's feeling while playing of moving as one body. Contrary to the creation of Mara, both the writing and recording sessions for Nadi were completed in relatively short periods of time.

Seminal debut album by Bavarian jazz quintet Fazer released again on Squama Recordings. Originally released 2018. Polyrhythmic two-drummer grooves and dubby basslines lay the foundation for soothing melodies and extensive improvisation. While the musicians initially met during their jazz studies at the conservatory in Munich, the record reflects on a wide range of inspirations from West-African music and Guaguancó to dub-techno and krautrock. 180 gram vinyl; includes download.

Mara is the debut album from the Munich-based jazz group Fazer. The young musicians combine African and Latin rhythms with dubby basslines and melancholic melodies. The unusual lineup with two drummers (Simon Popp, Sebastian Wolfgruber), bass (Martin Brugger), guitar (Paul Brändle), and trumpet (Matthias Lindermayr) leaves an open space for unfettered improvisation. Through the concept of repetition and finely measured dynamics, Fazer creates a drawing energy that can be felt directly at their live shows and has been captured perfectly on Mara. 180 gram vinyl; Includes download code.
