byron the aquarius: astral travelling
Francisco Espregueira
Straight from his heart, jazz pianist, electronic madman, genre-defying persona, Byron the Aquarius is consistently making some of the highest karat underground music available out there. His debut album, Astral Travelling, through Oslo-based Mutual Intentions, has his unmistakable sonic trademark. An array of musical influences, that span from hip hop, back to jazz, forward to deep house, all connected by this impossible-to-define vibration. His very own.
Creating on the road, while playing live shows all over the world, Byron the Aquarius has been taking inspiration from the places and cultures he has been in touch with - digging for records and meeting artists alike. Astral Travelling is one of the defining records of 2019, from the very first piano chord on the opening track. Time to sit down and enjoy a forty minute ride through the musical mind of the Aquarius with string compositions as an on-going theme throughout the album. Available on vinyl, this is a golden release from one of the most respected underground producers in the game. Courtesy of the Mutual Intentions crew.
