2019 release; 2021 repress. The first Sepalot Quartet album. "The issue was always: How could I transport my work as a producer and beatmaker on to a stage? How can something, that is happening behind locked doors in the studio, emerge into a live experience?" With this vivacious live quartet, he has found his answer. Songs from a productive solo career spanning a period of over ten years, Sepalot has a wide variety of songs to pick and choose from. Even in the live set up, his love for electronic music remains unaffected and the subtle influence of hip-hop is undeniable. Despite this being the initial state of the project, a distinctive sound has evolved from jamming together in dark rehearsal rooms. The different characters complement each other like a puzzle on stage, though Sepalot's part as producer and svengali is undisputable. Fabian Füss on the drums -- longtime partner on the drum set and the voice behind Sepalot's unmistakable radio hit "Rainbows". Angela Aux on the bass and mostly the voice of the quartet is a writer and solo artist in his own right. Having released albums on Millaphone his roots are undeniably in hip hop with a heavy tinge of folk. Matthias Lindermayr on the trumpet, who originated from a family of musicians, is highly decorated jazz virtuoso. His very own releases grace modern jazz specialist label Enja Records. Finally, Sepalot brings them together and making them more than the sum of its parts. The electronic beats, the pulsating bass, Sepalot's enthusiasm for ambient sound design -- all this remains unchanged and is garnished with the element of jazz. A unique, unequalled sound that strives for higher ideals and has immense international potential.
