Portico Quartet Memory Streams 2019 Euro/Germany 1st Press VG+/VG+

PORTICO QUARTET - MEMORY STREAMS

The fifth studio album from London's Mercury Prize-nominated instrumental ensemble Portico Quartet. Released on Gondwana Records in 2019, Memory Streams captures the band at their most cinematic, blending acoustic jazz elements, minimalism, and heavy electronic textures. Driven by Jack Wyllie's soaring soprano saxophone, Duncan Bellamy's signature hang drum and electronic percussion, and rich synth basslines, tracks like "Offset," "Signals," and "Double Horizon" trade off between atmospheric ambient soundscapes and hypnotic, driving rhythms. This European pressing delivers an exceptionally quiet noise floor and a wide, dynamic soundstage perfect for deep listening.
