The project features four leading vibraphonists and percussionists - Joel Ross, Simon Moullier, Patricia Brennan, and Juan Diego Villalobos - and captures the energy of their residencies at The Jazz Gallery, recorded at The Bunker Studio in Brooklyn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross intricate compositions and immersive sound design, BaRcoDe blurs the line between chamber music, modern jazz, and electronic experimentation, expanding Wendel's creative language into new terrain. A two-time Grammy nominee and co-founder of Kneebody, Ben Wendel has built a career defined by range and reinvention. BaRcoDe continues that trajectory, uniting four boundary-pushing percussionists each redefining their instruments in distinctive ways - from Ross's expressive harmonic sensibility to Moullier's microtonal precision, Brennan's processed textures, and Villalobos's folkloric rhythmic intensity. The album embodies Wendel's restless drive to explore sound as architecture - elastic, collaborative, and boldly futuristic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable on rosewood coloured vinyl and digipak CD editions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBen Wendel: tenor saxophone, EFX\u003cbr\u003eJoel Ross: vibraphone, marimba\u003cbr\u003eSimon Moullier: vibraphone, chromatic balafon, EFX\u003cbr\u003ePatricia Brennan: vibraphone, EFX\u003cbr\u003eJuan Diego Villalobos: Vibraphone, mallet station, percussion, EFX\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCD Tracks: Clouds \/ Mimo \/ Olha Maria \/ Repeat After Me \/ Birds Ascend \/ Lonely One\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EDITION RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46460036907164,"sku":"EDN1294","price":13.72,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/cd_d4e91e81-c4c6-4bcf-9100-b92858e9d4a7.webp?v=1772569755","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/ben-wendel-barcode-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
