   About Grogus
Grogus formed in 2002 as a side project of renowned jazz quartet Squat. The group combines various musical elements, including Latin jazz, salsa, son, descarga, New Orleans, merengue, reggaeton, hip hop, funk, and reggae. Initially, Grogus began by adding percussionists and woodwinds to the Squat line up, providing a medium for experimenting with a larger ensemble. The sound drew heavily upon the Latin jazz and funk arrangements of musicians like Tito Puente, Thelonius Monk, Horace Silver and Duke Ellington. Later a more emphasized horn section, piano, and vocals were added and the group began learning material from Cuban composer and musician Israel Cachao Lopez. Defining the sound of Grogus today, the ensemble incorporates Afro-Cuban and Caribbean dance and vocal music, including son, descarga, and salsa.

Abstractive Noise, an experimental / music project of Panagiotis Pagonis, offers Impulsive Art the debut release of the new creative common net-releases [IAd001] series.
