Review: The Gin Tonic Orchestra hail from Saint Etienne in the lower regions of France. They are a collective of music lovers with various different backgrounds that all feed into creating fresh new sounds. For proof look no fritters than this album, Shyance, which is their debut and is a perfect primer for anyone not familiar with the sounds. Elements of spiritual jazz, London broken beats, classic jazz-funk and new school fusions all feature here with some high-energy dance floor bangers like 'Rage Jaune' next to much more mellow offerings.
