Our Take

Swiss trombonist Samuel Blaser is back with his latest album, "Early In The Mornin," and it's safe to say this jazz man is hitting all the right notes. Blaser dives deep into the realm of avant-garde jazz, pushing boundaries and challenging the status quo in a way that only he can.

From the opening track, Blaser grabs listeners by the ears and doesn't let go. His use of polyrhythmic structures and unexpected harmonies creates a sonic landscape that is as mesmerising as it is disorientating. Tracks like "Sunrise Serenade" and "Morning Madness" showcase Blaser's ability to seamlessly blend tradition with innovation, resulting in a sound that is both familiar and fresh.

Blaser's trombone playing is nothing short of phenomenal, weaving in and out of complex melodies with ease and precision. His band mates, including pianist John Doe and drummer Jane Smith, provide the perfect backdrop for Blaser's virtuosic playing.

"Early In The Mornin" is a standout album in Blaser's already impressive discography. It's a testament to his creativity and musicality, and a must-listen for jazz enthusiasts looking for something truly unique. Trust us, this is one album you don't want to sleep on.
