Flur - Plunge
Flur is the meeting of Austrian-Ethiopian harpist MIRIAM ADEFRIS, British saxophonist ISAAC ROBERTSON, and percussionist DILLON HARRISON. The trio met when studying separate music courses at Goldsmiths, University of London. Immersed in the explorative music scene surrounding the university, they have played in various formations over the past few years and collaborated with acclaimed artists (Ganavya, Floating Points, Gal Go, Shabaka), but it wasn’t until now that they formed Flur.
Shaped between Riverside Recording Studios and a South Bermondsey warehouse, Plunge captures the trio’s first steps, moving between written passages and intuitive improvisation with equal clarity. Drawing on contemporary classical, free jazz, and ambient influences - think Alice Coltrane, Ambrose Akinmusire, Kaija Saariaho, Azimuth, and Angel Bat Dawid - the trio’s instrumentation creates a sound that is both expansive and intimate.
Plunge follows Latency’s acclaimed releases with Nidia & Valentina, Emahoy Tsege-Mariam Gebru, goat (jp), Tarta Relena, and Moritz Von Oswald, expanding the label’s commitment to boundary-pushing music. The album features cover artwork by Julie Mehretu, the renowned New York-based, Ethiopian-American artist whose layered, abstract cartographies explore the entanglements of history, place, and collective memory.
Flur will premiere Plunge live at Gilles Peterson’s We Out Here Festival in August, offering audiences their first immersion into the trio’s luminous, evolving sound world.
