Our Take

Phronesis' latest album, "Walking Dark," is a whirlwind journey through the depths of modern jazz. The trio, comprised of Jasper Høiby on bass, Ivo Neame on piano, and Anton Eger on drums, comes together to create a sonic landscape that is both hauntingly beautiful and irresistibly groovy.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where time signatures are fluid, melodies are complex, and rhythms are funky as hell. Høiby's bass lines anchor the songs with an effortless coolness, while Neame's piano melodies dance around them with a playful energy. And let's not forget about Eger's drumming - the man is a powerhouse behind the kit, driving each track forward with an infectious intensity.

Tracks like "Charm Defensive" and "A Silver Moon" showcase Phronesis' versatility and skill as musicians, blending elements of jazz, funk, and even a touch of electronica to create a sound that is uniquely their own. It's a truly exhilarating listen from start to finish, leaving you craving more with each passing moment.

So, grab a glass of your finest red wine, put on your comfiest headphones, and let Phronesis take you on a journey through the "Walking Dark." Trust me, you won't regret it. This album is a strong contender for jazz album of the year, and Phronesis are undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with in the world of contemporary jazz. Cheers to that!
