|
The Sixth Story is the exhilarating, full-throttle follow-up to 2009's critically-acclaimed Demi Masa and 2007's Patahan , from the Indonesian progressive gamelan-jazz band simakDialog.
Raising the benchmark in a genre known for its brilliant artists is no
easy feat, but this album is up to the task: each composition is an
exquisite master-class rendering of equal parts elegance and intrigue.
This is modern progressive jazz at its most original, most far-reaching
and most achieving. Referencing the discernible influence of a host of
the genre's most innovative voices -- from the great Miles Davis, to
Return To Forever, to The Zawinul Syndicate, John Abercrombie Quartet,
and even the late, great Charles Mingus -- the band continues to push
the musical envelope: leaping boldly into uncharted territories where
progressive music has yet dared venture (and precious few would be
brave- or skilled-enough to even consider attempting)
