Lotus September 27, 2008

Lotus, a five-piece ensemble, creates astonishingly danceable soundscapes. The music is heavily influenced by electronic music such as jazzy-house and drum 'n' bass mixed with elements of jazz, funk, and ethnic music from India, Africa, and Latin America. Lotus's seamless mixes and interlocking rhythms play like a DJ, but with a human touch. The result is a sophisticated yet accessible dance music that appeals to fans of live music, funk and jazz, and reaches into electronic music communities.
