Our Take
Our Take
The latest offering from British jazz maverick John Escreet is a seismic shift indeed. With its bold experimentation and boundary-pushing sound, this album is a rollercoaster ride of sonic delights.
From the moment the needle drops on the etched D-side, you know you're in for a wild ride. Escreet's intricate compositions weave a mesmerising tapestry of sound, with each track taking you on a journey through a kaleidoscope of mood and emotion.
The musicianship on display here is nothing short of exceptional. Escreet's piano playing is a tour de force, anchoring the album with his virtuosic skill and boundless creativity. His collaborators, including the likes of Chris Potter and David Binney, bring a depth and nuance to the music that is truly awe-inspiring.
But what truly sets Seismic Shift apart is its fearless sense of experimentation. Escreet isn't content to simply play it safe - he is constantly pushing the boundaries of what jazz can be, infusing his music with elements of electronica, free improvisation, and even industrial noise.
In short, Seismic Shift is a triumph of risk-taking and innovation. It's a wild, exhilarating ride that will leave you breathless and begging for more. Do yourself a favour and give it a spin - you won't be disappointed.
