Janko Nilovic & The Soul Surfers – Maze Of Sounds

A cinematic jazz-funk odyssey from a library music legend and Russia’s rawest groove outfit.

An intercontinental collaboration decades in the making, Maze of Sounds unites Janko Nilovic - the enigmatic Montenegrin-born, Paris-based library music maestro - with The Soul Surfers, Russia’s premier deep-funk ensemble. The result? A lush, jazz-funk journey where orchestral grandeur meets raw, analog grit.

Recorded at the historic CBE studio in Paris, this album fuses sweeping strings, hypnotic Fender Rhodes, and blistering funk breaks, creating a sound that’s at once nostalgic, cinematic, and deeply immersive. Whether it’s the psychedelic swirl of Hammond organ, the pulsing rhythms reminiscent of golden-era soundtracks, or the sharp, sample-ready drum breaks, Maze of Sounds is a crate-digger’s dream.

This 2021 repress keeps the magic alive, preserving the deeply textured, analog warmth that made this album an instant cult classic. If you’re into French library music, rare groove, and deep funk, consider this an essential spin.
