Our Take

Uri Gurvich's latest album, Babelin British English, is a dizzying, genre-bending journey that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about jazz. Gurvich's saxophone skills are on full display throughout the album, weaving in and out of complex rhythms and unexpected harmonies with ease. From the funky "Spooky Action" to the hauntingly beautiful "City of Gods," Gurvich showcases his ability to blend traditional jazz elements with modern influences, creating a sound that is truly unique. The album's title track, "Babelin British English," is a standout, with its driving percussion and melodic saxophone lines transporting the listener to a bustling cityscape. But it's not just Gurvich's technical prowess that shines on this album; his fearless experimentation and willingness to take risks set him apart from his peers. Tracks like "Mad pillar" and "BDS" push the boundaries of traditional jazz, incorporating elements of world music and electronica to create a truly innovative sound. Overall, Babelin British English is a bold and ambitious statement from Uri Gurvich, showcasing his ability to push the boundaries of jazz while still staying true to his roots. If you're looking for an album that will challenge your preconceptions and leave you wanting more, look no further than Babelin British English.
