Record Store Day took place last Saturday and two of KAU<\/a>‘s EPs were included among the special releases out that day. The latest signing on the ever\u2013consistent Sdban Records<\/a>, KAU’s two EPS, 2021’s II<\/em> and 2022’s III<\/em>, received a well deserved vinyl treatment, also marking the trio’s first vinyl release. On both EPs, Andre Breidlid (drums), Matteo Genovese (bass) and Jan Janzen (keys), who make up the Brussels outfit, stretch beyond the jazz cosmos, creating wild and exhilarating compositions with an improvisation spirit and irresistible grooves. KAU, as the label puts it, “create a head-bobbing atmosphere using broken beats and catchy melodies while leaving space for improvisation”.<\/p>\n

There’s more good news from KAU who are gearing up to release their debut full-length album in September. Whilst we wait\u00a0 for more details and new music to emerge, here’s two cuts from their re-released EPS to whet your appetite, ‘Napoli’, off EP II<\/em>, and ‘ Mad Max’ off EP III<\/em>.<\/p>\n
