Short Bio

 

JAZOO's music is very hard to define, because the members come from various backgrounds and have been differently influenced on, which can of course be sensed in their musical work. Although a lot of critics classifies them in the jazz category, they prefer the term 'improvised music', because besides jazz they incorporate also other 'impro-elements' of etno, electronic, nu-jazz, fusion and ambient, and lately we can feel more and more so called scandinavian jazz in their creations. Scandinavian jazz is based on minor scales, it is very positively melancholic and above all very melodious.
