Coma World - Coma Wong (2023)

Betamax (The Comet Is Coming, Soccer96) and Pete Bennie (Speakers Corner Quartet) have come together again to produce a further batch of rhythmically enlightened Dystopian Jazz, alongside illustrious graphic and sound artist Raimund Wong (Floating World Pictures) for this record - 'Coma Wong' - coming 6 October 2023 on Byrd Out.

The storm clouds are gathering at sea, with the white horses dancing ever faster on the waves. Coma World chose to ride out the tempest, sail up, speeding along together towards who knows what...

Support from Tom Ravenscroft, Deb Grant and Gilles Peterson on 6 Music, Peter Curtin om RTE Lyric FM, Al Hara, Dubmission and more. Maybe you heard their Live Session 5 September on 6 Music :) ?

"Betamax’s relaxed jazz drumming, complemented by Pete Bennie’s skillful bass harmonics, all interwoven with bursts of sound, expertly treated and layered through a tape pass by Raimund Wong." Music Is My Sanctuary

"Their latest sonic experiment in the cosmic leftfield." Twisted Soul
