QUANTUM FANTAY started in 2004 when Pete Mush and Jaro formed a new band after they’ve both been in the now disbanded “OREGON”. Pete is the current keyboard player in the Belgian progressive rock band “GIRRIBIZZI” and Jaro is handling the bass in a local cover band. Soon Gino Bartolini and Charles Sla came on board. QUANTUM FANTAY plays a kind of music they like to describe as liquid space rock. If this discription sounds unfamiliar maybe the name of OZRIC TENTACLES does ring a bell. But QF is a lot more than just a clone of OZRIC. Their music is sounding like a mixture of progressive rock, electronic music, groove, world music and most of all psychedelic rock, it also contains elements of reggae and dub.

Their first album “Agapanthusterra” is full of instrumental music, sometimes lush and cosmic, on other moments space rocking like Hawkwind. The variety of influences and calm and up-tempo section is fascinating from start to finish. Their sound is full of different instruments and sound effects although the keyboards are an substantial part of it. There’s a notably science fiction feel to the instrumental music which also has some noticeable prog elements especially in guitar and keyboard parts.
