Album Notes & Community Reviews

The seventh studio album from London-based group Portico Quartet sees them further refine their blend of jazz, ambient, and electronic music. The album foregrounds a more electronic sound, driven by intricate rhythms and their signature hang drum patterns. 'Monument' creates a hypnotic and suspenseful atmosphere, balancing moments of calm with propulsive, complex arrangements.
