Magyar Posse's music is instrumental and usually has a soundtrack-like atmosphere. Their biggest influence is a soundtrack composer Ennio Morricone, although their music reminds more of certain post-rock bands like gy!be, Sigur Ros and Tortoise.
The band has toured in Europe, Russia and China at least.
In mid-2012 the band announced that they would break up due to a general lack of motivation and passion with the group.
