Our Take

Jonah Parzen-Johnson's latest album, "Imagine Giving Up," is a mind-bending journey through the depths of avant-garde jazz. With his trusty combination of saxophone and analog synth, Parzen-Johnson creates a sonic landscape that is both innovative and otherworldly.

From the first track, "Lost in Translation," it's clear that Parzen-Johnson is not your typical jazz musician. He melds complex rhythms and unconventional harmonies with a raw, emotive energy that is truly captivating. The haunting drones of "Echo Chamber" draw you in, while the frenetic energy of "Sisyphus" keeps you on the edge of your seat.

But it's on the title track, "Imagine Giving Up," where Parzen-Johnson truly shines. The hypnotic pulse of the saxophone combined with the ethereal hum of the synth creates a mesmerising soundscape that will transport you to another dimension.

While some may find Parzen-Johnson's experimental approach challenging, for those willing to take the plunge, "Imagine Giving Up" is a truly rewarding experience. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let Jonah Parzen-Johnson take you on a musical journey like no other. You won't regret it.
