Riko and Whaler - Collective (2025) [Hi-Res]

"Collective" is the first official studio album from Riko and Whaler. It's an unvarnished document of a band whose psychedelic music thrives on the edge of structure and spontaneity. The record seamlessly blends psych rock, jazz, funk, jam-band improvisation, and experimental textures, a fusion the band's fans have dubbed "The Collective Sound." Many of the tracks on the album have been tested and reshaped through years of live performance, and the final recording allows their natural elasticity to remain intact. The album feels alive, shifting from dense and intricate to raw and spacious, while exploring themes of mindfulness and personal growth.
