The English band called GoGo Penguin looks like a jazz trio – you know, piano, bass and drums. But their inspiration comes from electronic music, Minimalism, and the reggae-inflected style known as jungle. All of which gives their acoustic music has a very modern, motoric sound. GoGo Penguin’s last American concert was a live silent film score earlier this year at a New Sounds Live event; now they’re about to play online in the legendary Abbey Road studio that The Beatles recorded in.

Gogo Penguin is an experience, almost a challenge. We know the fascination of Chris Illingworth, the pianist of the trio from Manchester, for robotics and the concepts of transhumanism and human upgrading. The music he’s been creating since 2012 with bass player Nick Blacka and drummer Rob Turner manages to merge machine and human like no one else. A classic formation, a jazz education, an electronic consumption and, in the end, this GoGo Penguin sound, incomparably fluid and superbly recorded by producer and sound engineer Joe Reiser, the true fourth member of the band.

Elliot’s Four Quartets: ‘And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time.’”
