More info on the album:

Formed in 1998, Landau was originally a union of four songwriters/producers geared towards writing melodic electronic music. Their earliest influences included the 1990's Warp Scene, trip hop, drum & bass and western art music. The group's underlying goal and aesthetic has always been the seamless blend of acoustic and electronic sound. Their sound has been compared to Plaid, Autechre, The Cinematic Orchestra, and Matmos, amongst others.

The Landau Orchestra is a project that focuses towards a perfect blend of acoustic instruments (4 brass, 4 string, 2 winds), piano and electronics. After a series of offerings on labels in England, Canada and the U.S., the band released its interna­tional debut on Merck Records, entitled The Epic Compromise. Since its release in 2004, the record has gained much international attention and praise.

Blending traditional and new experimental jazz composition with electronic produc­tion, The Landau Orchestra is creating something new, inventive and stimulating.
