London-based experimentalists Kinkajous have announced their new studio album, Nothing Will Disappear, set for release on October 18th via Nottingham's Running Circle label. Maximalism at its most subtle and tender – ambient music at its most rejuvenated. There are echoes of Sam Shepherd's collaborative work with Pharoah Sanders as Floating Points, and the subtle timbre shifts of Jon Hopkins and James Holden more so than their capital-"J" jazz contemporaries. A marked step-up from their previous work, which already holds critical acclaim by tastemakers from Gilles Peterson to the Vinyl Factory. Their debut album "Hidden Lines" (2019) and sophomore "Being Waves" (2021) both nestled into numerous end of year lists, praised for their blends of analogue, acoustic and orchestral instrumentation.
Described by CLASH as "a key part of the British music landscape," Kinkajous draw inspiration from orchestral, instrumental, and electronic music, and are renowned for their captivating and cinematic sound. Led by drummer/producer Benoît Parmentier and saxophonist Adrien Cau, they boast a formidable lineup including keyboardist Jack Doherty and bassist Andres Castellanos. It comes good on the brave new spaces Kinkajous pushed into with sell-out headline shows at London's Jazz Café and King's Place, alongside a gargantuan collaboration last winter with the London Contemporary Orchestra at London's EartH Theatre, and performances at Bluedot and EFG London Jazz Festivals.
