The Diasonics - Ornithology - Clear Vinyl LP Record

Cinematic funk visionaries The Diasonics deliver another solid set of Eastern-infused psychedelic, cinematic, disco-funk with their new album “Ornithology”, set for release on October 3 via Record Kicks.

Following their 2022 critically acclaimed debut album “Origin of Forms”, named Library Music Album of the Year at PopMatters, the Moscow-based instrumental outfit The Diasonics return with “Ornithology”, a sophomore album that pushes their sonic boundaries forward while staying true to their unmistakable style. Recorded at their custom-built Studio 23—housed in a repurposed Soviet-era lamp factory—the album captures the result of two years of intense creative exploration and experimentation.
