Our Take

Jazz aficionados, get ready to blast off into a galaxy of musical wonder with Miho Hazama and her M_Unit's latest album, "Beyond Orbits." This 11-track odyssey takes listeners on a sonic journey through space and time, with Hazama at the helm guiding us through elegant melodies, intricate arrangements, and mind-bending solos.

From the moment the album kicks off with the mesmerising "The Awakening," you know you're in for a wild ride. Hazama's compositions are a wonder to behold, blending elements of traditional jazz with modern sensibilities to create a sound that is both timeless and cutting-edge.

Tracks like "Red Moon" and "Flight of the Black Swans" showcase the ensemble's virtuosity, with each musician getting a chance to shine in the spotlight. The interplay between the instruments is tight and precise, yet there's a spontaneity and energy that gives the music a distinct sense of life and vitality.

But it's not all serious business – Hazama and her crew know how to have fun too. The playful "KAGOME KAGOME" provides a whimsical interlude, while the funky "Barbados" will have you grooving in your seat.

In conclusion, "Beyond Orbits" is a masterclass in modern jazz that will appeal to both traditionalists and newcomers alike. So grab your space suit, buckle up, and prepare for a musical journey beyond your wildest dreams.
