Zhlehtet is a collective based in Ljubljana, led by Slovenian pianist, composer & producer Rok Zalokar. It appears in different formats while keeping the unique blend of acoustic and electronic sound, contemporary music with the folklore. Coming out of spiritual jazz tradition, it's continuously expressing the message of the moment and mutual understanding.
The collective features the most prominent musicians of the new Slovenian jazz generation, who are developing a creative approach on their instrument and are at the same time composers themselves. Playing at a variety of different venues - ranging from Jazz clubs to Psy-Trance festivals - also influences the music's stylistic plasticity and makes the collective sound under constant development.
The year 2024 was groundbreaking for the collective. They started performing with all the active members and put forward orchestral colours. They presented a series of suites that are about to be released and toured internationally. The collective's 10th album is coming out at the end of November on Jazz Cerkno records.
The common thread of their live shows and albums is the channeling specific energy of the evening, therefore establishing a deeper connection with the audience and making each show unique.
