"Apifera" (Hershkovits / Rejoicer / Albalak / Bresler)

Apifera is the Tel Aviv-based, electronic jazz project of Nitai Hershkovits (Avishai Cohen, Georgia Anne Muldrow) Yuval Havkin (aka Rejoicer) (Buttering Trio, Mndsgn), Amir Bresler (Liquid Saloon, Avishai Cohen) and Yonatan Albalak (Big Vicious, Geshem). Accomplished solo artists in their own right, the band create organic-sounding structures, harmonies and arrangements intended to reflect the rich variety and equilibrium of the natural world. “Across the album’s lean 35-minutes, the quartet blurs into one to create a sonic world that is both meditative and prismatic, full of earthy percussion, low-key funk, cloud beats, and twitched out dub nods.” Aquarium Drunkard
