This is the debut EP from Boston-based duo, Jupiter 88. Jupiter 88 is a genre-defying group that seemlessly blends elements of hip-hop, pop music, avant garde sound creations and contemporary classical music. Jupiter 88 consists of piano, cello, soprano sax, voice, percussion, tape loops, drum programming and electronics. It draws inspiration from trip-hop/illbient beats; modern composers such as Philip Glass, Steve Reich and John Cage; magnetic tape pioneers of the 50's and 60's especially Luciano Berio and Ilhan Mimaroglu; jazz musicians like Steve Lacy; and contemporary artists from DJ Shadow and Portishead to the Rachel's.
