Our Take

Ah, JEAN-LUC PONTY, the violin virtuoso who has been bending genres and blowing minds for decades. His latest effort, "Individual Choice," is a bold departure from his previous work, blending jazz fusion with elements of rock, funk, and even a touch of electronica.

From the moment you press play, you are transported into Ponty's sonic universe of swirling synths, intricate rhythms, and, of course, his signature soaring violin melodies. The album kicks off with the funky and infectious "Computer Incantations for World Peace," setting the tone for what's to come.

Tracks like "Open Mind" and "Solitude" showcase Ponty's technical prowess and emotive playing, weaving in and out of complex time signatures with ease. The fusion of electronic elements on tracks like "Individual Choice" and "In Spiritual Love" adds a modern edge to Ponty's sound, keeping things fresh and exciting.

But it's not all serious business - Ponty injects plenty of humour and playfulness into the mix, with tracks like "Euphoria" and "In Spite of All" bringing a lighter touch to the album.

Overall, "Individual Choice" is a triumph for Ponty, showing off his versatility and innovation as a musician. It's a rollercoaster ride of emotions and musical styles, and one that will have you hitting repeat again and again. Jean-Luc Ponty may be an individual choice, but he's definitely one worth making.
