Globally renowned jazz instrumental group Polyphonic Exophilia gear up to launch perhaps their most established and compelling project yet. The opening moments of the new album Deep Diver are quick to set a vibe both musically impressive and satisfying. Deep Diver offers a fast-fingered set of layers from meandering bass to keys to horns an rhythms, and the energy is on point from the moment you hit play.
