A Race of Angels make a unique sound. It's a blend of soul, 60's funk, grandiose string and horn arrangements, softly strummed acoustic guitar, and slow-tempo beats under quavering tenor vocals channeling a 60's/70's R&B/soul style that come across in a purposely lo-fi way.

The vocal melodies often have a classic quality you normally hear in Motown recordings, while the lyrics infect the whole with a positive, thoughtful vibe.

In a distant way, that doesn't involve the up-tempo, nu jazz style, fans of the deeply soulful side of the Scandinavian jazz sound may find something they can relate to in A Race of Angels.
