"Danish quartet Maraton’s self-titled record comprises 15 improvisatory sketches, some of it incidental-sounding and some almost akin to free jazz. The quartet themselves - synth player and vocalist Christian Haase, saxophonist and Maria Dybbroe, pianist Lasse Sonne and drummer Jonathan Ludvigsen - feature members from many walks of musical life, with backgrounds in pop, hip-hop and jazz. In Maraton, they find themselves at an intersection of free jazz and electronica, with an improvisatory quality that keeps the pieces fresh and exciting" - Presto Jazz
