Our Take

Austrian musician Franz Koglmann’s latest album, “O Moon My Pin-Up,” is a whimsical journey through an eclectic range of musical genres. From jazz to classical to avant-garde, Koglmann effortlessly blends genres in a way that is both thrilling and disorienting.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful track, “Moon Over Miami,” a sultry jazz number that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Koglmann’s trumpet playing is both delicate and powerful, evoking a sense of longing and nostalgia that permeates the entire album.

As the album progresses, Koglmann’s experimental tendencies come to the forefront on tracks like “Pin-Up Girl” and “Ode to the Moon.” These tracks showcase Koglmann’s versatility as a musician, as he effortlessly transitions between traditional jazz melodies and avant-garde soundscapes.

One of the standout tracks on the album is “Lunar Love,” a dreamy ballad that features Koglmann’s signature trumpet playing. The track builds to a crescendo, with Koglmann’s trumpet soaring over a lush orchestral arrangement that is both mesmerizing and invigorating.

Overall, “O Moon My Pin-Up” is a masterful display of Koglmann’s musical prowess. With its eclectic mix of genres and virtuosic playing, the album is a must-listen for fans of jazz, classical, and experimental music alike. Koglmann has once again proven himself to be a true innovator in the world of music, and “O Moon My Pin-Up” is a testament to his enduring talent and creativity.
