Official video of LEUCOCYTE from the final e.s.t. album LEUCOCYTE.
Leucocyte is the result of one of these two day jams. It took place at the famed "Studios 301" in Sydney during the band's Australian tour. In early 2008 e.s.t.'s sound engineer Åke Linton joined the band at the Bohus Sound Studios in Gothenburg, Sweden to begin mixing. On April 28 there was a photo shoot in Berlin for the new campaign. On May 16 the artwork and album were delivered to the label.
Then on June 14 the incomprehensible happened: Esbjörn Svensson, probably the most influential stylist of the last decade, lost his life in a diving accident off the island of Värmdö near Stockholm.
As a result, Leucocyte has become Esbjörn Svensson's and e.s.t.'s musical legacy! It is the most venturesome album Esbjörn Svensson (p), Dan Berglund (b), and Magnus Öström (dr) have recorded as e.s.t. The essence of this journey of discovery is its ecstatic energy. It is a trip through the bloodstream sans compositional safety-net and stylistic restraints in which the borders of musical communication are sounded out.

to bad I have heard about them so late, just like Brecker :(

Esbjörn Svensson Trio will remain in my music for the rest of my life.

lets not forget the rest of the group guys......they did it together

this album reminds me of Bitches Brew; it isn't easily digestible, but play it a lot and it is astounding. I was doing a shit 'parachute manager' jod in 2009 fixing a business in bleak Bracknell and before and after all the corporate bollocks everyday I played this album on my car journeys to and from work;a relief, a release and an antagoniser that I needed. Love EST. Was bereft when learnt of Esbjorn's death.

I've come to the party late. Were they ever in NYC? Why didn't I ever hear of them? I agree this music is unique and refreshing. A breath of life. What a loss.
