Ikarus Zürich, Switzerland
Ikarus is a contemporary groove jazz quintet that explores permutating polyrhythms against a framework of functional grooves
and melodies, using improvisation as a key vehicle, with the intent of having a kinetic effect on the human body.
To date, Ikarus has released a total of four LPs - all of them on the boutique label Ronin Rhythm Records - and toured Europe and Japan extensively.

Accomplished masterpiece of contemporary "post-jazz" and neoclassical. I was speechless and completely stunned when I heard it first time.

Riot - 24 bit 96 kHz
by KALI Trio
supported by 42 fans who also own “Saiko”
Minimal jazz with odd time signatures but also with a sense for the dramatic (e.g. Riot, which builds up impressively). Produced by Nik Bärtsch himself and that might give you an idea of what to expect here.

This is fricking awesome. Just blend the unique Switzerland-based temporary music of Sonar, Akku Quintet, Blaer, Stephan Thelen's current works, with Karl Jenkins' Soft Machine and some minimalistic approach in King Crimson.
