‘Second Nature’, is the name the album released by Ocean Fanfare on July 1st 2021. Employing a rather simple algorithm, Ocean Fanfare has created an album that augments the quartet’s original free jazz instrumentation with modular synths, drum machines and guitar pedals.
The algorithm was programmed to analyse the group’s existing compositions, together with the music of 20th century greats such as Ellington, Monk, Stravinsky and Ligeti. The resulting material serves as a hybrid DNA, which composers Sven Dam Meinild and Tomasz Dabrowski used to create original material for the album.

With the subtitle Capitalist Transformation, Second Nature is part two of an album trilogy from Ocean Fanfare. Part one of which, ‘First Nature’, was released to international acclaim in 2019.
