Nitai Hershkovits and Daniel Dor return with Found & Found, their second collaborative album and a natural continuation of the musical dialogue initiated with The Garden Suite. Born out of pure curiosity -- "there was more to say, more to explore," explains Dor -- the album expands the duo's sonic language beyond the synth-only framework of their previous work. While the Moog remains central, Found & Found introduces clarinet and acoustic guitar, gently dissolving the boundaries between electronic and acoustic sound. Each composition unfolds through interlocking, mantra-like patterns. Repetition becomes a space for transformation: melodies circle, textures shift, and subtle harmonic movements invite the listener inward. The music is structured with care, yet it feels open and fluid. intimate, spacious and quietly immersive. If their previous record explored orchestral depth through synthesizers, this new chapter embraces air and clarity. Acoustic gestures emerge within electronic landscapes, creating a sound world that is both grounded and weightless. Nitai Hershkovits brings with his fellow partner Daniel Dor a refined harmonic sensitivity shaped by both jazz and classical traditions. Together they continue to refine a shared language that moves between structure and freedom, precision and emotion.

Acclaimed musicians Nitai Hershkovits and Daniel Dor present their highly-anticipated album The Garden Suite on Circus Company. Following their previous collaboration on Daniel Dor's debut album, Four Petals, this new project sees the duo exploring uncharted musical territory with an innovative, Moog-based sound. Inspired by the groundbreaking work of synth pioneer Malcolm Cecil, The Garden Suite marries electronic textures with the richness of orchestral sound. Drawing from a vast range of influences, including the works of Benjamin Britten and Fredrick Delius, Hershkovits and Dor meticulously composed each track, layering Moog synthesizer melodies to emulate various instruments from the orchestra -- from French horn to percussion, guitar, brass, and woodwinds. The result is a sound that is lush yet light, deeply textured yet not dense. The Garden Suite marks a significant evolution in the partnership between Hershkovits and Dor, with their new compositions shifting from the rhythmic focus of Four Petals to a more texture-driven approach. The album showcases their ability to create genre-defying soundscapes, blending Daniel's rhythmic system, "The Flower," with lush, ambient layers of sound created on the Moog. Nitai Hershkovits, known for his extensive work in jazz and classical music, began his musical journey as a clarinetist before transitioning to piano at the age of 15. His early passion for improvisation and jazz earned him several jazz competition awards in Tel Aviv. Nitai's career highlights include his five-year tenure with the Avishai Cohen Trio, and his numerous projects as a solo artist, including work with ECM and his band Apifera. Daniel Dor, a drummer and multi-instrumentalist, was born into a family of musicians in Tel Aviv. He began exploring rhythm at the age of 10, building his first drum set out of household objects. His innovative rhythmic method, "The Flower," gained attention with his debut solo piano album, Four Petals, which led to his collaboration with Hershkovits. Daniel has performed with notable artists such as NOA, Avishai Cohen, and Chano Dominguez, and regularly lectures on rhythmic symmetry and music. With The Garden Suite, Hershkovits and Dor offer a unique listening experience that challenges traditional genre boundaries. Their seamless fusion of rhythm, melody, and texture creates a soundscape that is as experimental as it is captivating.
