Bootleg Unit is a trio that blends the tradition of free jazz and electroacoustic sonic possibilities of tape loops. The combination of acoustic instruments and tape recorders, using loop tapes and live sampling, creates a music made of sharp cuts, weird grooves and broken loops. Surprising sounds comes from prepared drums and birdy saxophone patterns. Suddenly, it looks like there is a full horn section or a ghost epileptic drummer coming from nowhere. The space is constantly moving so the ear and the mind are challenged at any given moment; will you find out where the sounds come from? Or will you accept to loose yourself in the clusters of sound illusions?
