Delicious is a sonic behemoth drawing from Paxton’s idiosyncratic approach to orchestral music. Winds, strings, harpsichords and brass blend together with pitch bent samples, electronic textures, chopped vocals, and drum machines into pure movement. Underneath the chaos lies a solid foundation of melody which ties together the kaleidoscope of sounds which Paxton brings to life. The album is described by the composer as “biting into a strawberry and biscuit sandwich and having a good ol 'munch”. Delicious is decadent, dense, and will genuinely make you question if you’ve heard anything like it before.

Alex Paxton, the ”highly innovative...of exceptional creative imagination and musical energy, packed with life force unlike anything else” (BBC Magazine/Ivor Novello British Composer Awards) award-winning composer & jazz-trombonist will release his fourth record Delicious (May 16, 2024) via New Amsterdam Records.
