Echoes of Zoo

The Belgian global/jazz/psych-supergroup Echoes of Zoo, uniting members of Black Flower, Compro Oro & De Beren Gieren, have finished their third full album — set for release early October 2026 via Rebel Up x Zephyrus Records. Collective Intelligence is an album that grooves like a pack on a mission. Inspired by the clever coordination of animals, these tracks celebrate the magic that happens when individuals move as one. Drawing from the intelligence of swarms, flocks, and ecosystems, the record invites listeners to rethink how we, as humans, might face global challenges together. Deep African grooves and wild oriental melodies, all tangled up with Western twists and turns. Music that feels both primal and futuristic. Every beat buzzes with urgency and curiosity, inviting us humans to dance our way toward smarter, shared solutions. Collective Intelligence is not just a listening experience, but a call for awareness, connection, and shared responsibility. Acclaimed by amongst others MOJO, JazzWise, Songlines, Stereogum and UKVIBE, Echoes of Zoo played over 60 shows including WOMEX (Portugal), Rec-Beat (Brazil), Roadburn (The Netherlands), MENT (Slovenia), Ancienne Belgique, Flagey, BOZAR, Brosella Festival and many more in Belgium.
