About Album
Outer space. Infinite distances... From the very beginning of time, people have been fascinated by the sky – and so has max.bab, “a new promise for German jazz“ (Concerto). max.bab’s ACT debut Inner Orbit is an exploration of humanity’s adventures in space, an exploration that uncovers new dimensions; through its music the quartet focuses on the internal orbits since those “are at least as important as the external ones,” points out saxophonist Max von Mosch, thus explaining the idea of the album. “We’ve been wondering what astronauts actually feel in the weightless infinity of space and have tried to translate it into our language of sound.”

"Space music doesn`t always sound this grounded. (…) This is a group intent on new musical worlds.”
