Søren Skov Orbit – Adrift

Adrift is a debut that moves quietly but with real gravity. Led by Danish saxophonist Søren Skov, the quintet explores a hazy, African-inflected strain of modern jazz where groove, improvisation, and atmosphere carry equal weight. Recorded live in a single room, the album balances clarity and blur: burnished tenor lines drift over introspective keys, deep bass, and richly layered drums and percussion. Reverb hangs in the air, giving the music a trance-like pull without dulling its edge. Unclassifiable by design, Adrift rewards patience, with each listen revealing new details.
