Caboto: Nauta (Scenester, 2001)

Caboto's a Bolognese quartet playing a quite personal jazz/post-rock formula. Here's their first album, featuring six lenghty, entirely instrumental compositions dominated by polyrhtms, glockenspiel and a repetition-based approach which may remind both math-rock and minimalism. Something like a chance encounter among early Tortoise, Discipline-era King Crimson and Steve Reich... The moods are very varied, ranging from ecstatic sections to more frantic, jazzcore episodes.
