Release Date: 9th July 2021
Genre: Jazz

With their first album ‘Conquistador’, EXQUISICION presents their own melange of jazz, world, progressive and folk.

The musicians have tried themselves out and experimented with styles and sounds, and you can always discover wacky nuances here. In ‘Todescamphonie’, Jonas Imhof creates a striking rhythm pattern with a catchy twelve-tone series as a melody. Other compositions also show more playful influences, like the free ‘Sussman Run’.

More catchy are ‘Unorthodox Dance’ with its driving rhythm or ‘Bergblues’, which sounds like a melancholic trip through a dreamy mountain landscape. And ‘Arguments’ is not just a tribute to controversy, but a musical statement. An album on which every single track seems like a mini-movie soundtrack.
