Info for Organisme
“Organisme” is the third studio album by Danish drummer and composer Antonio Dayyani. It consists of 7 recordings from 3 different sessions at The Village, Medley Studios, and Jazzhus Montmartre, and thus it captures a dynamic frame of the artistic evolution of Dayyani and his sextet throughout the last half of 2025, which was a defining period of touring nationally and (for the first time) internationally.
Considering the title, the concept of an organism is meant to celebrate the beauty and mystery of life and to remind us of the interconnectivity of elements that makes a living creature – be it a person, a society, or the entire world. The album itself is a living creature and displays a wide insight into Antonio Dayyani’s musical world, giving the listener energetic journeys, intimate ballads, and probably also a few surprises.
Following the release in October 2026, Antonio Dayyani Sextet will head out on an extensive release tour in the beginning of 2027.

Antonio Dayyani
In a blend of crystal-clear, Nordic melancholy and dusty Americana, Antonio Dayyani invites you into his unorthodox jazz universe filled with stories of melodies and delicate sound-textures.
Antonio Dayyani (2000) is a drummer and composer from Aarhus, Denmark whose unique musical style is highly appreciated by audiences, radio-hosts, and critics all around the world.
In September 2024, his second studio-album “Trop op” (translated: “Step up”) was released on Copenhagen-based April Records, who have built an incredible roster of Danish Jazz-artists such as Little North, Nana Rashid, Kresten Osgood, Rasmus Sørensen, OTOOTO, and many more. This album is an encouragement to “step up” for one another and to share oneself with the world.
When playing live, Antonio brings his sextet consisting of some of the most promising musical talents from the Danish scene.
This album contains no booklet.
