Our Take

At first listen, the PATRICK ZIMMERLI QUARTET's latest offering, "Shores Against Silence", may leave you scratching your head and wondering if you've accidentally stumbled into a jazz funk fusion rave in the middle of the Scottish Highlands. But fear not, dear listener, for this album is a rollercoaster ride of eclectic sounds and mind-bending rhythms that will leave you both baffled and utterly delighted.

From the opening track "Soggy Socks at Sunset" to the penultimate "Moonlit Madness", Zimmerli and his quartet take you on a musical journey that feels like being trapped in a Salvador Dali painting with nothing but a saxophone and a bottle of absinthe for company. The intricate interplay between Zimmerli's saxophone, Chris Tordini's bass, and Satoshi Taomita's drums is nothing short of magical, creating a swirling vortex of sound that sucks you in and spits you out, dazed and exhilarated.

But it's not all chaos and confusion on "Shores Against Silence". Tracks like "Whispers in the Wind" and "The Calm Before the Storm" showcase Zimmerli's stunning compositional skills and the quartet's ability to navigate the ebb and flow of emotion with finesse. So grab your Hallucination hat and buckle up, because this album is a wild ride that is not for the faint of heart.

In conclusion, "Shores Against Silence" is a masterpiece of musical madness that will leave you questioning reality and craving more. Give it a listen, and prepare to have your mind blown.
