Our Take

In the vast sea of jazz albums, DANIEL HERSKEDAL's "Voyage" stands out like a well-dressed penguin at a beach party. This Norwegian musician has crafted a sonic journey that is as unpredictable as British weather - one moment you're basking in the warm glow of a sun-kissed melody, the next you're caught in a thunderstorm of frenetic brass. Herskedal's mastery of the tuba adds a unique flavour to the mix, turning what could have been a run-of-the-mill jazz album into a veritable smorgasbord of musical delight.

The album kicks off with "Voyage of Discovery," a fittingly titled track that takes the listener on a rollercoaster ride of tempo changes and unexpected twists. Just when you think you have the melody figured out, Herskedal throws a curveball that leaves you scratching your head in awe. It's like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube while riding a unicycle - challenging, but oh so exhilarating.

Tracks like "Lost in Translation" and "Northern Nights" showcase Herskedal's ability to weave intricate soundscapes that transport the listener to another dimension. It's like taking a journey through the Norwegian fjords on a magical musical carpet, with Herskedal as your trusty guide. And let's not forget the album's closing track, "Homecoming," a soul-stirring ballad that tugs at the heartstrings like a passionate lover.

Overall, "Voyage" is a must-listen for jazz aficionados and casual listeners alike. With its bold experimentation and captivating melodies, DANIEL HERSKEDAL has proven once again why he is a force to be reckoned with in the world of modern jazz. Bon voyage, indeed.
