Ground Patrol - Converge (2026) [Hi-Res]

The album "Converge" by the duo Ground Patrol (Kyle Sanna and Alon Ilsar) marks a new creative phase, blending spontaneous improvisation with deliberate minimalist structures. Recorded in France with producer Tony Paeleman, the work features guest woodwind players for the first time, enriching the ensemble's signature cyclical sound. The compositions are built upon both live sessions and remote collaborations, reflecting themes of personal growth and transcontinental synergy. The music operates at the intersection of math rock and experimental genres, creating sophisticated, hypnotic sonic landscapes.
