Description
Hip hop meets jazz, quartet meets orchestra, ToyToy meets the NDR big band: the encounter and cross-fertilisation of two musical spheres that are usually far apart brings together what has always belonged together. Necessity is the mother of invention. When making music together fell victim to the need to minimise contact, Silvan Strauß, drummer of the Hamburg electro-jazz quartet ToyToy, and Geir Lysne came up with a project that brings together the reduced-contact approach of hip-hop and contemporary pop music with the sonic power of a big band.
