2016 Reissue of ""Mutations"" - the second work of The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble from 2009. Not existing anymore since 2012 The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble now finally makes all long-time sold out releases available again on all formats.


 The series of reissues starts with their genre-determining second output ""Mutations"". An act combining profound musical sensibilities, deeply emotional harmonies and an acute ear for genre inter-breeding, The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble placed itself and the confluent of dusty, gritty jazz and low-end doom-laden drones, and came up with a sound which is at the same time warm and dark, brooding and misty, cinematic and dynamic. The ensemble's music - mournful, mercurial and thoroughly spooked - has the lingering impact of the silent movies (Metropolis, Nosferatu) that served as their initial inspiration. (The Wire). Currently founding member Jason Kohnen is paving the way with his new dark jazz project ""The Thing With Five Eyes"", continuing the mystical and occult universes people got to love from the ""Here Be Dragons"" period. His debut album is set to appear in 2017.


Together with ""Bohren und der Club of Gore"" and ""The Dale Cooper Quartet"", The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble through the years have succeeded in creating a brand new genre of music.
