Zeus Faber - Scubason

Zeus Faber is a deep sea fish and a also the name of a band from Switzerland. This is their debut album “Scubason”, an undersea ambiance, a delightfully atmospheric, original Eurojazz style, virtuoso performances, great production, and tons of charm and soul.

Taking its inspiration from the deep sea fish that changes color to match its surroundings, the eclectic Swiss duo ZEUS FABER fashions a broad range of musical textures. No stranger underwater, TRISTAN FELDBAUER brought his long experience as a scuba driver to fellow keyboardist and veteran session-player OLIVIER TRUAN. Their maiden voyage also featured a host of stellar guest musicians on their first recording, the HOS debut Scubason.
Where Scubason adopted a broad style of contrasting moods, Below settles in to a cool groove and then dives deeper. Atmospheric European jazz is the main influence, and the music is expansive with underwater ambiences and nautical embellishments. The complimentary textures of piano and keyboard-based synthesizers combine with solos on saxophone, clarinet, melodica, and acoustic guitar. Below fuses Jazz and ambient sonorities in an original chamber setting.
