We've recently been enjoying the brilliant, exploratory collision of jazz and improvisatory rock being conjured by Italian duo Satelliti. Andrea Polato and Marco Dalle Luche have been working together since 2010, and are shortly to release their new album, Transister, on October 28 via Cuckundoo. It's a mixture of Polato's fluid drum work combined with Luche alternating between restrained synth chords and furious, driving organ lines, and we'd thoroughly recommend you lend an ear to the LP, which you can stream below and pre-order over at their Bandcamp.

And in further good news, the band will be in the UK for a couple of live dates next month - have a look below and scroll down for a couple of recent videos from the duo:

Wed 13 - Servant Jazz Quarters, London w/ Tom Rogerson
