The more I listen to the Cancel, the more I have the feeling the great Nujabes has found his European counterparts. Sure he was one of the greatest and to compare his skills as of equal to someone else's is to be considered madness in the music community. Unless you get hooked from the first song you listen to and let the player stream track after track, thinking how ridiculously smooth and sound the beats are.
This is exactly how I felt when I first stumbled upon the Cancel, a six-piece band from Ukraine. I was about to share their latest album until I found a video of a gig they did last year. It is hard to believe this is their first live show as a band as every sound comes out so sharp. It is a pleasure to listen and watch the guys perform an improvisation of their song 'Alice', stretching the original track close to five minutes.
