In an East London side street, Café Oto hosts a program of international experimental sounds to shame subsidised arts temples, drawing demographic defying crowds of all ages through its doors.
The first release on the venue’s own label, available as authentic vinyl slab or slippery download, is a forty minute splurge of sax, drums and bass skronk from Oto’s regular visitor, the German free jazz giant Brotzmann, alongside two stars of the London improvisation scene.
Unrepeatable moments of collective inspiration and sudden sunlit shafts of modal near-melody punctuate the ongoing energy blur.
Business as usual down Dalston Junction.
