James Peden has been part of the Melbourne music fabric for years having relocated from his original home of Auckland, New Zealand. His music is steeped in mid-era synthersizers, taking inspiration from the ’80s – a time where the likes of Kraftwerk, New Order, Depeche Mode, and Pet Shop Boys were blazing a trail for electronic incorporation in mainstream music.

In this little instrumental song "the bouncer" by saxophonist Lorenz Hargassner we can see conflicts in between different musical styles of the world - and a solution. They are coming from different cultural backgrounds and manage to create a common language in their performance. Did you expect it worked? To throw in the Qyl Qobyz from Kazakhstan by Raushan Orazbayeva, the Pipa by Gao Hong, an electric bassist from Johannesburg, a classical trained vibraphone player from Berlin, a US gospel drummer and an australian remix-artist? Listen, enjoy!
