Our Take

Jonny Mansfield Elftet - Self titled

In a musical landscape oversaturated with generic, cookie-cutter jazz ensembles, Jonny Mansfield Elftet emerges as a sparkling gem, effortlessly blending avant-garde sensibilities with infectious melodies that will have you tapping your foot and scratching your head in equal measure.

From the quirky time signatures to the mind-bending harmonies, Mansfield and his band of merry misfits have crafted an album that is as delightful as it is disorienting. Tracks like "Swingin' on a Star" and "Moonshine" showcase the group's musical prowess, with each member given ample opportunity to showcase their individual talents.

But it's not all fun and games with Elftet - there's a darkness lurking beneath the surface, a sense of existential dread that creeps in when you least expect it. The haunting vocals on "Blackbird" and the eerie atmospherics of "Twilight" leave you feeling unsettled, like you've stumbled into a David Lynch film set to a jazz soundtrack.

Overall, Jonny Mansfield Elftet's self-titled album is a wild ride that will have you laughing, crying, and scratching your head in equal measure. It's a testament to the band's fearless creativity and undeniable talent, and a must-listen for anyone tired of the same old jazz tropes.
