Our Take
Our Take
JD ALLEN's latest offering, This, is a delightful journey through the ever-evolving landscape of contemporary jazz. Known for his innovative approach to the saxophone, Allen proves once again that he is a force to be reckoned with in the world of instrumental music.
From the opening track, "Moonflower," Allen's masterful saxophone skills take centre stage, weaving in and out of intricate melodies with precision and grace. Each note seems to speak volumes, telling a story that words could only dream of capturing.
The album's production is crisp and clean, allowing each instrument to shine in its own right. The drumming is tight and groove-driven, providing a solid foundation for Allen's saxophone to soar above. The bass lines are deep and rich, adding a depth to the music that is both refreshing and captivating.
Tracks like "Twilight" and "Soliloquy" showcase Allen's ability to create mood and atmosphere with his music. The melodies are haunting and beautiful, drawing the listener in and refusing to let go. It's clear that Allen is not just a skilled musician, but a storyteller as well.
In a world where jazz can sometimes feel stagnant and repetitive, JD ALLEN breathes new life into the genre with This. His innovative approach to composition and improvisation is a breath of fresh air, and a reminder of why jazz music continues to captivate audiences around the world. This is an album that demands to be listened to, savoured, and shared with all who appreciate the power of music.
