Our Take

Stefano Pastor and Ari Poutiainen's collaborative effort, "North South Dialin," is like a rollercoaster ride through a musical wonderland. The album combines elements of jazz, funk, and electronica to create a truly unique listening experience that will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head in no time.

Pastor's hypnotic trumpet playing weaves effortlessly with Poutiainen's funky bass lines, creating a dynamic interplay that is both cohesive and unpredictable. Tracks like "Midnight Sun" showcase the duo's ability to create intricate, layered compositions that draw you in and keep you engaged from start to finish.

But it's not all serious business with Pastor and Poutiainen. Tracks like "Funky Penguin" and "Groove Machine" inject a healthy dose of humor and playfulness into the mix, showing that these artists don't take themselves too seriously and are just here to have a good time.

With its infectious grooves, inventive arrangements, and stellar musicianship, "North South Dialin" is a must-listen for anyone looking to add some excitement and originality to their music collection. Pastor and Poutiainen have truly outdone themselves with this album, and I can't wait to see what they come up with next. Pitchfork Rating: 8.5/10.
