Nik Bärtsch’s Swiss jazz quartet Mobile uses basic musical concepts within a ritualistic framework to produce a sound that is sometimes funky, sometimes ambient, and always obsessively charged. Recording for ECM since 2006, bandleader and pianist Bärtsch plays with drummer Kaspar Rast, reed player Sha, and percussionist Nicolas Stocker.
