THROTTLE: Elevator Music
Wide Hive, 2012

PUNK/JAZZ FUSION – Fun, in-your-face trio blends old-school punk-rock riffs and mopey indie-rock ideas with some very cool modern sax blowing (by Kamasi Washington, a fiery player out of LA who really should be better known). All instrumental, all short tracks. Neat-o!

Fo’s Picks: 1, 3, 4, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 16

1. 3:15 – catchy bassline, sax blares
2. 3:10 – mopey meandering
3. 2:56 – rockin’ chugger, great sax!
4. 3:16 – fusion: fast vs slow layers
5. 2:25 – upbeat indie-rock sound
6. 1:55 – quick, angular grind
7. 2:20 – straight-up rock groove
8. 1:27 – slow fall over fast drums
9. 1:47 – jerky new-wave riffs
10. 4:35 – upbeat creep, sax digs in
11. 2:12 – energetic angular bounce
12. 2:00 – happy pop-rock
13. 4:03 – speedy beat, spacey sax
14. 3:08 – indie-rock beat, sulky sax
15. 0:43 – brief punk x-plosion
16. 3:40 – sinuous groove, sax thrust
