Luis Verde, WORLD OF DISTRACTIONS

Luis Verde -][- WORLD OF DISTRACTIONS –Mp3– [Youkali Music, 2012]

With a brief, but intense career behind him, saxophonist Luis Verde Extremadura, a key part of some of the most exciting musical projects of the moment (Citric Trio, The Wachisneis, Ander García Quintet, Orchestra Afrodisian …) and one of the musicians promising of the new – and hyper – National Jazz generation, now confirms best wishes with “World Of Distractions“, his personal debut. A warm and close work, deeply marked by the Mediterranean light, the Afro-Cuban rhythmic pulse and the patent devotion legends as Thelonious Monk, or closer in time as Avishai Cohen, Miguel Zenon, Guillermo Klein … Magnificently assisted by a select group of young Spanish and Cuban jazz (Ariel Bringuez on tenor, Roberto Pacheco on trombone, Luis Guerra at the piano, Ander Garcia on bass and drummer Michael Olivera) Luis Verde is postulated with this debut definitely one of the more sensible voices, personal and innovative Spanish Jazz today. The future is here … -[Excerpt | Biography Translated to English]-

“Meyers, while swinging hard shows an incredible dynamic range complimented with the lyrical nuances of bassist Loh for a ballad that much like ‘A Glimpse Of Past Events’ is a tune likely to get stuck in your head on more than one occasion. (…) Old school becoming new cool has the Christian Meyers Quintet nailing it straight through. A one word review of East Autumn may best be described as ‘addictive’.” Criticaljazz.com 10/12 (Brent Black)

Christian Meyers Quintet, EAST AUTUMN

Christian Meyers Quintet -][- EAST AUTUMN –Mp3– [Neuklang, 2012] –

Nachdem Christian Meyers immer wieder den klassischen Quintettsound mit Trompete, Tenorsaxofon, Piano, Kontrabass und Drums im Ohr hatte, und über die Jahre immer mehr Stücke dafür schrieb, war die Konsequenz, das Christian Meyers Quintet zu gründen. Auf EAST AUTUMN finden sich all diese Stücke wieder: Es groovt wie in A Glimpse Of Past Events, es swingt wie in Jim’s Jump, aber es gibt auch ruhige Stücke wie Still Around, und mit Berlin Pancake sogar einen augenzwinkernden Calypso. Der Herbst ist dem in Berlin lebenden Meyers die liebste Jahreszeit, und mit dem gewählten Albumtitel trägt er der Tatsache Rechnung, dass der Berliner Herbst oft relativ kalt ist.

Musicians:
Christian Meyers – trumpet, flugelhorn; Andi Maile – tenor sax; Ull Möck – piano; Jens Loh – double bass; Eckhard Stromer – drums
