Our Take

In an industry obsessed with labels and genres, PRIMITIVE ARKESTRA's latest offering, "DolphyS Hatin," is a refreshing reminder that music doesn't have to fit neatly into any one category. This avant-garde collective from the UK blends elements of jazz, electronic, and experimental music to create a sound that is truly unique.

From the opening track, "Saxophone Screams," it's clear that PRIMITIVE ARKESTRA is not afraid to push boundaries and challenge expectations. The cacophony of saxophones, drums, and electronic effects creates a chaotic yet captivating sonic landscape that draws the listener in and refuses to let go.

Tracks like "Bassline Boogie" and "Synth Samba" showcase the band's incredible versatility, seamlessly blending traditional jazz elements with modern electronic production. The result is a sound that is at once nostalgic and futuristic, harkening back to the heyday of free jazz while also pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the digital age.

But it's not all experimental noise and technical wizardry. Songs like "Hornet's Nest" and "Funky Fusion" inject a healthy dose of groove and rhythm into the mix, providing moments of pure musical bliss that will have you dancing in your seat.

In conclusion, "DolphyS Hatin" is a truly original and boundary-pushing album that defies categorization. PRIMITIVE ARKESTRA is a band that is unafraid to take risks and explore new musical territory, and the result is a breathtaking listening experience that is sure to leave a lasting impression. Trust us, you'll want to jump on this musical spaceship now before it leaves orbit.
