Description
The new album from Flying Cakes (saxophonist Nils Wrasse, pianist Benjamin Geyer, bassist Thomas Kolarczyk and drummer Philip Dornbusch) from Double Moon Records is volume 77 in the "Jazz Thing Next Generation" series.
Each of the eleven pieces which comprise the album was created over a period of four years. Sometimes the idea came up in the rapturous ambiance of a long-distance ride from the Black Forest to Berlin ("Lunatico"), and sometimes it was the peace of mind with which a bird on the ledge in front of the window killed time ("Bird"). Much of Flying Cakes seems familiar, but it is still refreshingly different. Although the four draw on the familiar patterns of jazz, they repeatedly embark on unprecedented paths by processing musical traits of various genres in their compositions. Geyer, Wrasse, Kolarczyk and Dornbusch bring together the perceptions of each individual and transform them skilfully into tones, rhythms, sequences, sound surfaces and solos.
