Quinn Sternberg-Cicada Songs
Within the million or so genres that exist, there are a special few that are beyond my understanding. Purely refined, versatile and mathematically precise, jazz is one of them. Quinn Sternberg is not your ordinary jazz musician, he's been on his own odd time roll since 2016. After his release Weird World, he has explored the extents of his creative boundaries passionately. 6 years later, this is his latest album, Cicada Songs. The twisted tempos of jazz The opening track is June, something that is a soft cruise down this road of jazz Quinn so easily navigates. The album having sharp turns to straight drives, there was a desire to know what this album transpired from. "I think the overall sound of this record is based on a combination of bands that I was really interested in at the time, but each individual song has its own narrative that I tried to funnel those sounds into." , Quinn says. It is clear from the sound in June and the immediate shift of tone, tempo, rhythm and heart in the title track that he is purely out to enjoy himself. "Ron Miles, Marquis Hill, and Kurt Rosenwinkel were definitely high on my listening list, and I wanted to combine what I was hearing in their music with my own aesthetics to animate the 8 different scenes." says Quinn, about his thematic travel. Using this dramatic effect of splitting the tone and sounds, each track can extract the characteristic of these artists Quinn admires, with his signature delivery. The funky core of Cicada Songs is a massive juxtaposition from June or the cinematic flow of Remember the Birds. A new approach and style Quinn says "A lot of the diversity in soundscapes on this album comes from the instrumentation. This was the first album I've done with both a guitarist and a keyboardist and the first one where I've played both electric and acoustic bass." This is heard in the tonal shift between the tracks, where each controls the motor movement of the song itself. Take the relaxed flow of Porch Cat for example, it has notational character very different of that to the complex clockwork of What A Day. "Being able to switch between the two basses and various combinations of guitar, Rhodes, and piano gave us a lot of different textures to work with. It also helps to have a super creative and versatile drummer like Peter Varnado to give the songs a unique contour." It has vastly amplified the tempo that is mirrored and replicated on all the instruments, a jam harnessing cosmic energy. Weird World is now miles away from Quinn's current sound and mind. "I think as an instrumentalist and as a writer I'm more inclined to use the bass as a compositional tool than to try to do "cool things" on the bass. The first couple albums have a bunch of bass solos because I thought that was a necessary thing, but this time around I just wanted to play bass lines that supported the music. I'm trying to play solid parts now even in improvised contexts where the part can change rapidly." The approach and process have changed massively, which is where we see the maturity in sound from Quinn Sternberg. On composing and working When asked about the most complex song on the album that would have felt easy, Quinn said Remember the Birds. "Sometimes as a composer I spend so much time writing a piece and gaining an intimate understanding of it that by the time I bring it to the band I've forgotten that the rhythms and chords I wrote are super weird. This was a tune that I wasn't really worried about initially, but it's proved to be quite challenging to play live." I would suppose that would be the case for all of jazz, but hearing this track reminds you how masterful the genre is to understand and appreciate. Sinusoidal also asked what other plans Quinn Sternberg has with regards to collaborations and parallel projects. "I have a handful of projects that I've worked on recently as a sideman that I'm excited to see come to fruition. A couple of rock groups I play in, Mighty Brother and Ari Carter Trio, recorded albums the same month as the cicada session that will both be out before too long." "On the BAM/Jazz side of things I recorded a couple albums with the Doug Stone/Marcelo Pinto Quartet and Kirk Duplantis that I'm stoked for. There are a ton of amazing players that I'd love to collab with, but I'll be thrilled if I can keep working with the guys I'm currently playing with." You could hear the drama of Quinn Sternberg's playing with Cicada Songs while watching slow-burn drama unfold on Birdman or La La Land among others. So watch chaotic scenes unfold with us!
The Art Crimes Band-In the Dark of the Evening
Some songs go down like finely aged whiskey. The Art Crimes Band makes songs like none other. Not only is their sound especially unique given their journey, their arrangement, approach and styles that confluence is a sonic delight to dance under. This is their latest single, In the Dark of the Evening. Whether you’re being muscled down by non-starter, boring conversation or just traveling, this is guaranteed to make your head turn. The Art Crimes Band open with just an acapella style opening, so that the instrument drop feels special. Now, any other band would have made a loud, presence-felt mess of the opening. Audio that feels hasty. This group slides in smoothly, imitating motions in the dark. It is important to hear those transitions, they revel in the detail of their music. The accents and flourishes in the middle of the verse parts is enjoyable, a delectable surprise of sorts. Hearing the whole track makes you feel excited, like a high using only the right notes. Then you see the scene the song sets. It is a dance, a dangerous dance within frame. Reminded me of movies like Focus, The Italian Job. There is a lot to learn that we can visualize within the scene, but the rendezvous takes convulsions we don’t get to gauge. It is a superb effort by a band that has settled into making some of the sharpest sounding arrangements in the indie band scene. Check out their tracks like Neon Skyline & If Only, for beautiful audio narratives. Follow them for some resounding compositions!
JUNK- Chromatose
JUNK released their first album- Chromatose and it is nothing short of an enigma which features Dirty D and Dubl B. Dirty D is the saxophone player and Dubl B is the Bass player and a music theory genius. Chromatose is so satisfying to hear, it feels like they scratch an itch that you never knew existed deep within your brain. It has this quality that is so striking but is as smooth as silk on a baby’s bottom. Chromatose and Blow The Album by JUNK begins with Chromatose, the single that is an eclectic mix of rock, punk and Jazz. The song has a brilliant arch within itself. The music tips its hat slightly to Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen as it softens towards the end. None of the above has an unusual start with an almost psychedelic vocal work. It warns the listener of the epic Saxophone and Bass solos that are yet to come. The track is elevated by the electric guitar that riffs the song to life! If the album was a movie, you can imagine that the story reaches its climax at Blow. The number begins with a striking bass entrance. Don’t get me started on how the Saxophone has you grooving to it in a trance-like state. The medley of the two instruments creates such an arsenal of feelings within you, it almost gives you whiplash. Frogadelic Frogadelic is a track that is extremely different from the rest of the tracks on the album. It draws from nature sounds, especially the frog. This happens because of the Guiro and the Bird Water Whistle, two musical instruments that imitate nature noises. Frogadelic takes you by surprise because up until now, your mind was blown by some brilliant Jazz music. All of a sudden you hear nature. You don’t know why but your body begins to groove to this new quality of music. Frogadelic feels like you had some funny brownies in the middle of a forest and are touching grass with a newfound sense. Everything Everywhere All at Once is a beautiful film that has many nominations under its belt. The film is shedding light on a surrealist form of art and storytelling. One of the cast members Stephanie Hsu is a skilled absurdist and alternative theatre artist. She once played a hand on stage. The kind of imagery and feelings the album evokes and the film evokes is very similar in nature. The album has so many possibilities to play with as well as it has such a wide variety of tunes within it. You pick a scene and the album has you covered with a soundtrack that fits as background. It is guaranteed that the first album by JUNK will floor you with its sheer skill of production, intrumentals and detailing. It comes as such a surprise that they don’t have many followers. I am assured this will change, people will not be able to resist hitting the follow button after being floored by their musical sense.
Anton Commissaris-Mission of Love
Imagine yourself smoking a Marlboro, dressed to the nines in a jazz club. It might be difficult for you now, but Anton Commissaris can help you. There are time capsules that can take you back. Then there are artists, who can bring the sound of the time to you. Mission of Love is the song that will do the latter, almost effortlessly. Find the flavour in love, in black and white. You’d be forced to not say “just like Sinatra” listening to this. Just like the Rat Pack, Anton brings the Vegas suave to you. From the instrumentals to the dapper vocals, you can hear the melody improvising, changing and tailored to the times. It might not be the case, but if you press this on vinyl, you’re fooling an awful lot of people. With beautiful, deep lyrics of finding the emotion that is yearned so much-it is a journey unlike any other. If this is the first time you’re listening to this artist, I can bet you that it won’t be the last. This is where the essence of music is returned, with style and flavour. The improvised inflections, whether planned or not, are the cherry on the icing. They bring the movement and energy of a live performance, and Anton Commissaris has perfected that imagery. From Down with Love to Begin Again, there are a lot of romance genre movies that would do well with this song.

JehiahSax-Gangster of Love
JehiahSax can bring the next big revolution, or something in the form. His music transcends genres, but his sound is very much pure. His compositions have an ease of familiarity, but his sound is complex and crystalline. You’re looking at a contrast of a human being, a living contradiction of class and poise. Some might think I’m joking. He, for one, might agree to disagree. This is his latest single, Gangster of Love. Seldom do people remember Kenny G’s collaboration with DJ Jazzy Jeff. At the time, it was stuff of legend. De La Soul did it in their jazz-rap/bluesy style of execution as well. JehiahSax creates the same effect of change, but with another style. He is a renaissance man, and you hear his sax lick first. Developing into a hip-hop track, he very much controls the atmosphere. The guitars show us their flavour in the verse section, but the sax mirrors the chorus. Gentle but present, it is like a glossy sheet of sheen on an expensive work of art. Sometimes you might realise that a diamond shines in plain sight as well. Incredibly catchy, a song like this is going to rest in your playlist for a long time. I’d have loved to have heard this one in Boiler Room. The smooth sax playing with the hip-hop verse contrast is something that would fit in the already sensational soundtrack of this movie. You can get more of JehiahSax with his other single, Reckoner. He is always recording more music, so you don’t have to wait much for his next single. Follow him for more music! Here’s the pre-save link for his track-https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/jehiahsax/gangster-of-love-feat-ken-fitzpatrick--werekitten-2. Follow him and make sure you are up to date with his releases!

The track is a masterful display of musicianship, featuring sick modal changes and overlapping guitar and piano melodies that create a rich tapestry of sound.

The production on "Lights Out" is incredible, with the organs and pianos sounding absolutely delicious.

IMF got in touch with the artist to discuss Lights Out Lights Out is a clear winner for a spot in a contemporary Experimental and Alt-Jazz playlist. How did you come up with such a unique sound? I wrote this one with drummer John Kimock and pianist Eden Ladin in mind. John is one of my favorite drummers on the scene and after listening to him the melody and chords just came to me. After being well-known in the South African indie music scene for a while now, where do you see Ari Joshua as an act headed next? I’m not aware I was well known on the South African indie scene but that’s great news to me. As an act? Where am I headed? I just want to impact more people in a positive way, and resonate with people. A twisted complex emotional journey courtesy of Ari Joshua As the track progresses, it leads the listener through a range of emotions. The opening piano melody is introspective with a hint of melancholy. As the Guitars come in, the mood becomes more upbeat and lively, with a sense of frenetic energy building in the background. Again, at around the three-and-a-half-minute mark, the track takes a turn towards the experimental, with dissonant chords and unpredictable rhythms creating a sense of tension. The compositional brilliance demands a shoutout to fellow contributing artists John Morgan Kimock, Andy Hess & Eden Ladin. The song jumps through a vivid mix of emotions. What was your inspiration for such turbulent songwriting? I’m not sure. I’m not sure it jumps through a mix of emotions. But I’m glad to hear you feel that way.

Andy Hess is a real sweet guy, really genuine, his playing is A++. I’d travel to play with him any time. John is really special. He serves the song.

He just plays the most amazing ideas and rhythms. It’s a joy to have great players with the combination of not needing to prove anything just working on collaborating and making art. What's next? After the positive reception of your initial releases like SoulMine and The $1000 Question, can your fans expect a full-length studio effort anytime soon? Well yes. But due to the high cost of producing and full length and the way the industry is, it’s just been my focus to produce a song at a time. The songs will all fall into albums later. There is a plan. Do you have any artistic insight or tips for upcoming songwriters who are willing to venture into progressive modern jazz? Listen to the masters. Find a few recordings to FALL IN LOVE WITH. Study them like the people study the Bible. Plan on dedicating 10,000 hours one way or another, and go see lots of live music. Also, support the artists you live that are alive.They deserve to be rewarded and appreciated! This experimental jazz number would be perfect for a variety of TV shows and fantasy noir movies.

Ruud Voesten - Clickbait Merchants
The new single by Ruud Voesten, 'Clickbait Merchants' is a breath of fresh air for the jazz world. Drawing inspiration from progressive music, the song incorporates elements that redefine traditional jazz music, making it an absolute delight to listen to. As the track progresses, the mix of the song feels reminiscent of vinyl records, providing a unique listening experience that transports the listener back to the days of classic jazz. In conversation with Ruud Voesten Your latest release Clickbait Merchants is dark, intense, and exhilarating. What was your vision behind this track? Clickbait Merchants is part of my upcoming record 'Ambrosia', which I composed to Dante Alighieri's poem Inferno. In this Italian literary work from the Medieval era, Dante describes how he descends through hell and encounters the capital sins, sinners and punishments. Clickbait Merchants in particular deals with the sin of fraud. Connecting this theme to our current times, reminded me of the strategy media use to grab our attention. By using headlines consisting of bold claims, inflammatory words or flat-out lies they try to capture our attention for clicks. The music reflects this by having a constant brewing tension and big but short melodic gestures.Funny side note: The title idea came from a short clip of Connor McGregor where he rants against journalists. An intro on 11/4. At the same time, counting 23 on every turnaround. That’s a rather complex time signature. What inspired you to come up with such a groove? I never really thought about it in that sense, as an 11/4 or 23/4 bar. My starting point for the song was this small bass line of three descending quarter notes, which I sometimes extended with two extra notes to keep it fresh and quirky. This became the intro, but when composing the melody I ended up with more material over the 3/4 part. So in a sense, I'm feeling the music in 3/4 all the time, until I don't for one bar, which could basically come at any given moment. Redefining progressive jazz songwriting One of the standout features of 'Clickbait Merchants' is the way the song shifts through various moods but always maintains a sombre tonality. This allows the listener to truly appreciate the beautifully written horn sections that complement the sonic palette. The horns add a layer of depth, adding an emotional intensity that perfectly fits the song. The song redefines jazz by often venturing into the realms of progressive music. Could you walk us through the process of composition? The composition process started by reflecting on what my associations were with 'fraud'. I searched for what it meant to me in this day and age. Inspired by the Conor McGregor quote I started to move into the direction of media harvesting our attention. I wanted the song to be boastful, loud and demanding attention, but never fully deliver on the initial promise.The bassline formed the starting point of the composition, combined with the general energy and feel. I wanted the melody to reflect the empty promise of the clickbait titles, so while putting the bassline on repeat I improvised melodic gestures with some medium intervals. I ended up picking the ones that suggested there was something bigger going on / about to happen, but in the end, didn't really deliver.For the B part, I put the focus on the horns rhythmically alternating and weaving together. At this point, I was experimenting with writing lower parts for the alto than the tenor saxophone and I really like the way this sounded. The solo seemed to need a shift in energy, so we ended up with this open feel followed by an extended B part to develop the composition a bit more. What is next for the drummer? Ruud Voesten's history as a drummer and composer is impressive, and it's clear that he brings his years of experience to this latest release. The artist is currently living in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, and has been making music for many years. Furthermore, his new single is part of a full album set to be released in 2023. Inloopmuziek has garnered your outfit a global niche audience and a place in reputed indie playlists. What may fans expect next? 'Ambrosia', the full record with music composed to Dante Alighieri's Inferno, will be out in September on the ZenneZ Records label. We'll be touring during the fall and I might start working on the second part of the Divine Comedy: Purgatory. Wietse Voermans and I are working on a new project called 'Genius Loci' which is about making the room/venue where we perform part of the improvisation and composition process. It's going to be a combination of free improvisation and composed music which we'll create while doing a week-long residency. In July we'll spend a full week at the venue Brebl in Nijmegen (NL). Brebl is one of the newer jazz venues in the Netherlands but has always been operating on borrowed time. The local authority offered them a location destined to be torn down for a couple of years. Unable to find a new place they got a little extension in another building, but they're looking for a new place. This sense of a fleeting home and the urgency of being out of time is something we hope to put into music. We'll experiment with using the reflections of the room as part of the music and by using the story as inspiration. An instrumental fit for mystery cinema 'Clickbait Merchants' is an instrumental piece that would fit well into the soundtracks of classic detective movies. The track's progressive sound and experimental outlook would make it an excellent fit for detective movies and whodunnits like The Pink Panther (2006) or Chinatown (1974). The song's unique blend of jazz and progressive music makes it an ideal choice for indie music lovers who are looking for something fresh and exciting. Overall, 'Clickbait Merchants' is a stunning piece of music that showcases the talent and creativity of Ruud Voesten. The artist's ability to seamlessly blend jazz and progressive music is truly remarkable, and the result is a song that is both unique and beautiful. Fans of indie music and jazz lovers alike will undoubtedly appreciate this masterpiece from Ruud Voesten.
