Chicagojazzen
Already the title of Chicagojazzen’s new album “Misantropi för nybörjare” (“Misanthropy for beginners”) challenges and plants questions. And the music lives up to this challenge. It’s instrumental, experimental, lo-fi, but basically beautiful creations with contagious melody hooks and rhythms.
It feels like someone has taken a perfectly carved statue with perfect lines, and in an artistic pathos used axe, hammer and saw on it, to make it more real. Or maybe just to challenge, or expose something. Listen here below in a couple of tracks and in a live recording by SVT.
