Dutch music collective blending jazz, ambient and soundtrack-like elements; formed by Jason Köhnen and Gideon Kiers.

Associated with The Mount Fuji Doomjazz Corporation; vocalist Charlotte Cegarra is featured on several releases. Sound described as dark, suspended and noirish.

A reviewer awards the album a full score, calling the music "effective" for its unmoving yet dynamic delivery. The band blends jazz, ambient and soundtrack-like elements into a unique dark-jazz atmosphere. Instruments (saxophones, cellos) and restrained vocals create suspended, noirish soundscapes.
