about
LONDON ODENSE ENSEMBLE, formed in 2022, is the joined forces of two leading exponents of the London jazz scene, saxophonist/flutist Tamar OSBORN (Collucutor, Dele Sosimi Afrobeat Orchestra, Rude Skøtt Osborn Trio) and keyboardist Al MACSWEEN (Kefaya), and three of the leading figures of the Danish psychedelic/krautrock scene, drummer Jakob SKØTT (Causa Sui, Chicago Odense Ensemble, Limp and Syntaks), guitarist Martin RUDE (both collaborating in Edena Gardens, Sun River, Rude Skøtt Duo and Rude Skøtt Osborn Trio) as well as Jonas MUNK (guitar/electronics/vocals/producer/keyboards/Fx in Causa Sui) providing a dubby, ambient atmosphere by editing and mixing with effect boxes wired in. Building upon the electric jazz and buzzing electronics of the Rude Skøtt Duo, the Rude Skøtt Osborn Trio released their exploratory jazz debut in early 2022 before expanding to a quintet with MacSween contributing piano and analog synhts and effects and Munk binding it all together on the debut "Jaiyede Sessions Volume 1" released later that year. On display is a unique blend of sax, flute, piano and analog synths and effects that produces a kosmische, improv/jammy mix of 70's jazz rock/fusion, Canterbury, raga, post rock, krautrock and 70's electronic experimentation with emphasis on psychedelic/space rock. Recommended if you like Can, Popol Vuh, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Soft Machine, Causa Sui, electric period Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock and Terry Riley. User-contributed text is available under
