Description

Release Date: 25th August 2017

The Mercury Prize-nominated British band are back with their majestic mix of contemporary jazz electronica ambient and minimalism. The group created their own singular cinematic sound over the course of three studio albums from their 2007 breakthrough Knee-Deep in the North Sea and 2010’s Isla to the self-titled record Portico Quartet in 2012. Now rebooted back as Portico Quartet after a brief spell as the three-piece Portico the group release their fourth studio album Art In The Age Of Automation on the excellent Manchester-based forward thinking jazz and electronica indie label Gondwana Records. It’s an eagerly anticipated return with the band teasing both a return to their mesmeric signature sound and fresh new sonic departures in their new music.
