Eleven songs make up this album from Vivienne Aerts, something like alternative neo-jazz, with hints of Eva Cassidy, Chet Baker, to the voice and songwriting, but a more alternative edge of electronic design in unison, to keep things secure in this new artistic arena.
Neo Jazz
Established composer and multi-instrumentalist Marco Palmieri continues his creative expansion as a contemporary artist. Noting years of performance experience and backed by two studio albums in the jazz realm, Palmieri’s devotion to composition now sees his music effectively create a uniquely immersive and distinct realm of escapism for modern and classic fans alike.
Marco Palmieri manages to be all at once creatively eccentric and defiantly aware of what audiences appreciate. Here we can get lost in the music with ease – the experience is about us, the listener, rather than purely about the performer. That’s a rare quality in modern jazz, and as such, this music feels original at the same time as really letting and even nudging your imagination to wander freely.
Dreamy jazz-kissed pop and rock with a refreshing twist of artistic delicacy at the helm – Miami creatives Nuclear Monkey capture a likable set of grooves and reflections, with their softly uplifting new album Hello Again.
Creative film composer Will Bates incites a multitude of emotional reactions, with the infectiously melodic, quirky yet enthralling tones and ventures of The Pirate Album.
Smooth contemporary Jazz blending subtle hints of influence from RnB and Pop as much so as Blues, Gospel and Funk – creative composer and artist Omer B joins forces with a handful of skilled musicians, to bring Groovy Stairs to life.
Seductive live jazz captures a moment in time, as Ben Freidkin delivers the extensive instrumental project Trial & Error.
Clarinetto Reeds approaches performance and composition from a sheer love for music, and this shines beautifully throughout these recordings. Rather than merely presenting melodies and structures, you can hear and indeed feel a level of soul in the playing, and this makes all the difference.
Fusing elements of swing & jazz with those that are a little funkier or even rock inspired, LoungeZotica 3000 ignite a fresh love for instrumental music with their own clearly passionate, worthy presentations.
Immediately refreshing, uniquely expressive, and easily recognisable for its unusual approach to story-telling and soundscape building.
Jazz & funk touched, ambient escapism at its most immersive & fascinating. Tiny fragments of audio collide, combine & intertwine to create something vast & alternative, almost like a freestyle jam – the vocals included.
With this project, the artist Gilman Mom has blessed listeners with the perfect fusion of nature’s own ambiances & the electronically sourced rhythm & emotion of a creative producer.
