Jaga Jazzist

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Plenty of your hipper bands might vary their influences list with acts like Tortoise, Charles Mingus, and the Neptunes just to prove they are cool.

GSL is extremely proud to announce the debut U.S. release from Oslo, Norway's critically-acclaimed JAGA JAZZIST. The band's sound is a minefield of contrasting textures and styles; the comparisons that come up often include Miles Davis, Squarepusher, Tortoise, Talk Talk, and Kid 606. The 10-piece group's members span their domestic music scene, and they have performed with, and/or been part of, virtually every notable contemporary Norwegian band. JAGA JAZZIST seem on the brink of breaking open to a massiv   [ read more ]

First off: Let it be know that from here on in the band previously known as Jaga Jazzist will henceforth be called Jaga. Jazzist has been dropped to rid themselves of any wording that may somehow suggest they exist in any one genre. Jaga has become something of a musical phenomena in Norway since they started 9 years ago.

Not only is this ten-piece instrumental band regarded as one of the most exciting and innovative in Norway, the members are all involved in other musical projects and have in one way or another contributed to almost every significant recording to come out of that part of the world in the last few years.

Licensed to Ninja Tune after its highly acclaimed release on Smalltown Supersound, this excellent outfit features members from the Norwegian jazz, improv and electronics scene to make up what is akin to the Charles Mingus big band for the 23rd century. Influenced by 70's Weather Report to the manic rhythms of Squarepusher from darkness and serene light (there are some truly beautiful melodic sections). So if you like electronics and jazz this album comes strongly recommended though it's more jazz than anyth   [ read more ]
