Spin' is the ninth release of the band Nik Baertsch's Ronin, since its foundation in 2001 and the first with bass player Jeremias Keller, who joined the band in 2020. The band still consists of the founding members pianist/composer Nik Bartsch and drummer Kaspar Rast and reeds player Sha who has been part of the group since 2004. Since their last release 'Awase', the band has continuously developed the repertoire further in their weekly Monday concerts in EXIL club in Zurich. 'Spin' therefore shows not only the newest developments like 'Modul 63' and 'Modul 66' but also a combination of new and old material in 'Modul 70_51' ('51' recorded on the ECM album 'Llyria', 2010) and the two classics 'Modul 14' and 'Modul 23' in completely new arrangements and interpretations.
