Our Take

Matthew Halsall On the Go is like a perfectly steeped cup of English breakfast tea, served with a side of jazz. Halsall, known for his soulful trumpet playing, delivers yet another stellar album that effortlessly blends elements of spiritual jazz, electronica, and classical music. From the moment the first track "Space" kicks in, listeners are transported to a sonic realm where time and space cease to exist. Halsall's melodic phrasings float effortlessly over ethereal synths and intricate percussion, creating a hypnotic soundscape that demands repeated listens. Tracks like "Joyful Spirits of the Universe" and "Journey in Satchidnanda" showcase Halsall's knack for blending traditional jazz elements with modern production techniques, resulting in a sound that feels both nostalgic and futuristic. The addition of guest vocalists like Celeste and Jaimie Branch adds an extra layer of richness to the album, elevating it to new heights. Overall, Matthew Halsall On the Go is a masterclass in contemporary jazz that should not be missed. Whether you're a die-hard jazz aficionado or just looking for something new to groove to, this album has something for everyone. So sit back, relax, and let Matthew Halsall take you on a musical journey unlike any other. Cheers!
