Jazzrausch Bigband - Emergenz [LP]

Genre: Jazz

 Jazzrausch Bigband stands for a truly unique concept: jazz meets techno meets big band.
 After the powerful, song-like album ‘techné’ from 2021, which featured a cast of prominent musical guests, new release ‘Emergenz’ focuses on the core line-up of the band. And a more subtle, yet broader approach, which incorporates elements of minimal music, drum & bass, literature and stronger jazz influences without giving up the trademark of the band; pulsating grooves and powerful horn arrangements.
 When comparing ‘Emergenz’ with earlier albums, what is most striking is how the band’s expressive palette has become even more differentiated and  refined. The moments when the energy levels are at their highest are still dominated by techno jazz, which is only to be expected, but, in between, the regular four-on-the-floor pulse of the bass drum is increasingly suspended, so there are sections where the forward momentum comes from intricate interlocked horn parts, or just voices.
