Soul Jazz Records rarely release new music, but they found the music on TREES SPEAK’s album ‘OHMS’ so stunning and containing so many musical elements they admire that they felt compelled to release it. 

The group Trees Speak is from Tucson, Arizona and creates new music that sounds like GERMAN KRAUTROCK meets NO WAVE/POST-PUNK and PSYCH ROCK – music for fans of CLUSTER, TANGERINE DREAM, CAN, NEU!, SILVER APPLES and early KRAFTWERK. 

The album ‘OHMS’ sounds at times like a tripped-out & moody JOHN CARPENTER/GOBLIN/MORRICONE soundtrack that seamlessly segues into propulsive, ‘motorik’ Krautrock instrumentals loaded with fuzzy, hypnotic mellotron, synths and analogue effects, as well as elements of ART ENSEMBLE free jazz, all at times reaching a kind of post-rave psychedelia. More recent comparisons would include BEAK and GHOST BOX, who draw upon similar themes and styles. 

Trees Speak are Daniel Martin Diaz and Damian Diaz, plus musicians from the Tucson, Arizona scene such as Giant Sand, XIXA and James Hunter. ‘Trees Speak’ relates to the idea of future technologies storing information and data in trees and plants—using them as hard drives—and the idea that trees communicate collectively.
