Modern jazz quartet with piano and trumpet. It's got that jazzy sheen to it but is prone to adventurous twists and complex writing. Tracks like 1,3,8 change gears abruptly and/or seem designed to mess with your head, while 4 and 6 show off some complicated writing drawing from jazz and classical wells. Greg Felton - piano Sean Carpio - drums Jacob Wick - trumpet 1- Snappy and upbeat, in unusual time. Crisp trumpet and a jabbing theme. Brisk intensity. Later, it splits off into a quiet, abstract piano flow. 2- Perky mid/fast jazzy flow. Theme written in long, bouncy lines; a really nice listen. 3- Midtempo flow, with some long stacatto pauses as the band messes with us. 4- Fast patter. Really confusing theme. I love it! 5- Slow and lyrical, with drama 6- Perky overlapping lines, scurrying. Then, a classically-influenced piano solo. 7- A quiet repetitive pulsing behind slow piano chords and some interesting drumming. Low-key. Very slow/quiet start. 8- A touch of chamber seriousness, but still a strong mid/fast jazzy feel 9- Pensive, slow. Unaccompanied trumpet intro. Develops slowly after that. | ||
