Our Take

Stephane Payen and Guillaume Orti's collaborative effort, Volume I, is a whimsical journey through the realms of experimental jazz. The album takes listeners on a rollercoaster of emotions, from playful and quirky to introspective and haunting.

Payen and Orti showcase their masterful musicianship on tracks like "Swinging Snails" and "Jazzercise." The duo's seamless blend of saxophone and trumpet creates a dynamic interplay that keeps listeners on their toes.

One standout moment on the album is the track "Funky Frogs," which takes a surprisingly funky turn with its infectious grooves and lively horn solos. It's impossible not to tap your foot along to the beat.

However, Volume I isn't all fun and games. Tracks like "Bittersweet Blues" and "Melancholy Melodies" showcase a more contemplative side of Payen and Orti's music, with haunting melodies that linger long after the final notes fade away.

Overall, Stephane Payen and Guillaume Orti's Volume I is a daring and delightful listen that will leave you wanting more. It's a must-listen for any jazz aficionado looking to shake up their music library. Strap in, sit back, and let this dynamic duo take you on a wild ride through the world of avant-garde jazz.
