Aotearoa (New Zealand)’s interstellar jazz collective The Circling Sun return with their radiant second album Orbits, landing July 11th. A deeper, more groove-driven journey than their acclaimed debut Spirits, the new record brings cosmic synth textures, Brazilian rhythms, Afro-Cuban percussion, and the transcendent presence of the Love Affinity Choir into bold alignment.
Blending organic instrumentation with shimmering electronics, Orbits channels a warm, meditative energy that invites both movement and reflection. At the heart of the record is a deep sense of collectivity—voices rising together, rhythms pulsing in orbit.
The first single "Constellation" is out now—an explosive introduction to the album’s rhythmic core, where layered percussion, spiritual jazz motifs, and celestial vocals collide.
Listen to “Constellation” and pre-order Orbits now.
