after their great debut track "crosswinds" which came out on
"future sounds of jazz" vol.7 in summer 2000, the salvador group
now are releasing their first 12" on compost records.
the two members florian hartl and julian fischer, both natives of
bavaria, first met at michael reinboth's resident clubnight into
somethin' in munich. realising they both had an interest in the
same sounds and the desire to produce their own music, florian and
julian found themselves in the studio together for the first time.
it was from this first studio session, that the salvador group was
born. their musical influences include artists like jazzanova, carl
craig, as one, and photek, to name a few.
side a of the 12" features the track "the moon is high" which is a
wonderful odyssey through uplifting beats, deep atmospheric sounds
and some lovely piano tones.
"crosswinds", the track which already was on fsoj 7, sounds as
fresh as ever with its sharp beats & breaks and moody jazz chords.
and finally there's "crag" a track which sets the beats back and
makes space for a drivin' bass line and a magnificent groovy piano
pattern.
the salvador group also made a contribution to the compost 100
compilation called "moksa", another excellent track.
press quotes:
"the cinematic beauty of the salvador group's "crosswinds"
impresses..." (beats & breaks, autumn 2000)
"...savour the higher-ground atmospherics of ... salvador group's
"crosswinds"." (straight no chaser, autumn 2000)
