“Portico Quartet surpass their past selves and ascend to soaring heights. Memory Streams is without a shred of doubt their finest work to date, and one of the finest albums of this year.
For those of you that haven’t heard of them, Portico Quartet are a jazz band hailing from London, UK. They established themselves as a fairly uncharacteristic group, incorporating electronic textures into their music and approaching their song structures with a downtempo and post-rock-influenced mindset. It quickly became noticeable that with each release, the band were continuously refining their craft and looking for new ways to take their sound further. Enter Memory Streams, the culmination of fifteen years of development as a group. This album is easily the band’s most solid on literally all levels.” – EverythingIsNoise
