Spicy and flavourful, Moustik Haterz’s music is never short on taste. In this tight-knit instrumental quintet, the enthusiasm is infectious. Two saxophonists intertwine their lines, propelled by a powerful keys–electric bass–drums trio. Their crowd-pleasing programme, sharp yet accessible, is best savoured live. With pieces inspired by Balkan and Middle Eastern music or by electronically textured UK jazz, partying and dancing are never far away. Then more impressionistic spaces open up: floating, dreamy pieces the band also has the recipe for.
