ESTUAR Imagine: a group of underwater aliens, shoulder to shoulder at a bar on the bottom of the sea, drinking fresh ink - and singing! Realizing this situation is just exactly what Roberto Domenicioni, Thomas Tavano, Christof Zurbuchen, Felix Perret and Niki Neecke are doing musically: freely improvised music, in different states of fluidity. Five instrumentalists, unite their individual ideas and experiences in a free music, rising up from the ocean's abysses. Octopus' call! The band was formed in autumn 2001. The freedom and fun they have discovered whilst playing together in such a project ensures that the band's music is constantly evolving. Octopus uses freely improvised "themes', "parts' or moods together with today's electronics - in real time. This results in a music that - just like nature - invents itself over and over again.
