Altus: “Origin”

Greek x Yoruba mythological excavation. Altus is reaching back into all sorts of lore to justify their jazz creation, but the music speaks for itself. Our highlighted track “Origin” is a strong “statement” entry into that classical jazz sound of the mid-20th century. Shorter quizzical runs are paired with longer sweeping gestures, and the mood of cool, Big City bustle is all around. Off the full-length Mythos. Via Biophilia Records.
