Euglossine, a project by Tristan Whitehill, a multi-instrumentalist based in Gainesville, Florida, who is well known for his releases on cutting-edge labels such as <Hausu Mountain> and <Orange Milk>, is now available on <sound as language> . A different-dimensional work with a jazz fusion atmosphere, with a feel of game music and soundtrack. A surreal, bitter and approachable book◎


Euglossine is the solo project of multi-instrumentalist and composer Tristan Whitehill. With a catalog of over fifteen diverse releases spanning a decade on labels like Orange Milk, Hausu Mountain, and Phinery, Euglossine's discography moves ambitiously across genre and time. Some Kind Of Forever is Euglossine's brand new full-length, out March 2022 on sound as language. Where previous Euglossine releases were a complex balance of jazz fusion, sound design, and computer music, Some Kind Of Forever sees the artist pulling back and searching for simplicity. On this album, Whitehill immerses himself in the light and delicate. Some Kind Of Forever is Whitehill's most refined and restrained work to date. Influenced by the early ECM catalog, decades of groovy/weird library music, and domestic golden-hued psychedelia, Some Kind Of Forever's subtle, meditative jazz floats by ever so softly. The album's rich and open instrumentals are pristinely constructed yet always playful. Whitehill moves deliberately as he peels back the layers to create something carefully magical and tender. Some Kind Of Forever is an instant timeless classic and the warm, gentle breeze we all need right now.
