The Vintage Modernists -[]- Cityscape –MP3– [The Vintage Modernists, 2012 | Review] –

As we converge with the consonance of unique sounds of jazz, they leap forward into uncharted territory in this universal soundscape. Often times, it seems that musicians channel these ideas with a concoction of mainstream rhythms, beats, off-centered patterns, programming tools, knotted textures and melodically complex tones produced by an array of contrasting voices these days is truly a learning experience to behold.

At this juncture, I’m ecstatic once again to discover an eclectic new voice in post-modern jazz era. You know where musicians gravitate to their childhood influences and mesh them with a range of alluring sounds from places like the Rockies to the insecurity and challenges of the concrete jungle of LA to form a new voice The Vintage Modernists and their intriguing new project titled “Cityscape.”
