FIRST NAME BASIS ON JAZZOTECH RECORDS OCT 13TH
This October 13th, Jazz-o-Tech welcomes their new school and fast-rising talents Warren Walker and Antonin Violot for new five-track EP First Name Basis, which showcases their unique take on techno jazz.
Warren Walker is a composer and producer who plays sax and synthesisers. He operates in an effervescent musical universe that is in constant flux and infuses jazz with widescreen inspirations. In both the studio and live arena he has found creative harmony with drummer Antonin Violot. They combine their forces to great effect on this debut EP which came together in organic fashion and was mostly recorded live. Its mix of electronic and acoustic instruments is a seamless fusion of different worlds and techniques that explores all new ground and is deeply emotive.
