Description

Abstract Forces' is the second release from Cloudmakers Trio, the brainchild of vibraphonist Jim Hart, which features Whirlwind Recordings founder Michael Janisch on double bass and Dave Smith on drums. The album is a powerful mix of strong grooves, catchy hooks and, as the title suggests, very open improvising. Hart's writing explores different textures, moods and eclectic sound worlds, rendering the music unpredictable and exciting while at the same time beautifully accessible. The album is an organic continuation of a well-established musical relationship originally formed to collaborate and record with the NYC-based trumpeter Ralph Alessi in 2010 (the result was the Cloudmakers' debut 'Live at the Pizza Express', one of the most lauded albums of 2012 in the UK jazz/improv press). It was during the build-up to the tour and recording of the live album that Hart had the good sense make this trio the focus of his new compositions and arrangements. Personnel: Jim Hart (vibraphone, effects), Michael Janisch (double bass), Dave Smith (drums)
