Our Take
Our Take
GoGo Penguin's latest album, "Necessary Fictions," is a jazz-infused journey through space and time, blending traditional acoustic elements with futuristic electronic beats. The Manchester-based trio have once again pushed the boundaries of contemporary jazz, creating a sound that is both innovative and captivating.
From the opening track, "1_31," with its hypnotic piano melodies and pulsating bass lines, to the ethereal ambience of "Embers," GoGo Penguin showcase their versatility and musical prowess. The intricate drum patterns of Rob Turner add a dynamic energy to each track, while Chris Illingworth's melodic piano riffs soar through the mix, creating a truly immersive listening experience.
But it is Nick Blacka's bass that steals the show on "Necessary Fictions," anchoring each track with a deep, rumbling groove that keeps the listener hooked from start to finish. The album's production is crisp and clean, allowing each instrument to shine through and creating a sense of depth and space that is truly mesmerising.
Overall, "Necessary Fictions" is a triumph for GoGo Penguin, reaffirming their status as one of the most exciting and innovative jazz groups of our time. With its bold experimentation and infectious energy, this album is sure to delight both longtime fans and newcomers alike. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let GoGo Penguin take you on a musical journey like no other.
