The sound of the Munich duo around singer Enji and percussionist Simon Popp is characterized by an almost hypnotic atmosphere. Stylistically, Poeji moves between spherical ambient soundscapes, post-dub beats and free jazz moments. Enji's expressive vocal interludes and Popp's drumming enter into a musical dialogue that makes you forget time and place.

Their recently released debut album »Nant« combines Popp's and Enji's previously concentrated strengths in their solo work to create an intoxicating and at the same time sumptuous soundscape that repeatedly evokes memories of the works of artists like Steve Reich or Philipp Glass. At the same time, the duo's sound is more than just the sum of the individual contributions of two of today's most talented jazz musicians: instead, in the Poeji cosmos, the creative energy of their counterparts becomes a multiplier of their own creative power. Sounds unbelievable, in both senses of the word.
