”Piano-less trio delivers discreetly elegiac
melodies alongside their stinging grooves.”
This is what BBC recently said about UK based
trio Partikel. A stunning, energetic trio with sax, bas and drums.Partikel are three London based musicians;
Duncan Eagles – Tenor and Soprano Saxophone,
Max Luthert – Double Bass,
Eric
Ford – Drums and Percussion
All with very different musical backgrounds, who have come together to make music mixing all of their favorite influences in a melodic, coherent and accurate way. The music puts an interesting twist on the standard jazz format while still honoring the tradition of deep harmony and creative improvisation.
Drawing influence from African and Latin American music combined with
the style of the contemporary New York jazz scene (Marcus Strickland, David
Sanchez, Miguel Zenon), Partikel produce a personal, committed and contemporary
take on the saxophone trio. Soulful melodies are mixed seamlessly with complex
mixed meter vamps and an instantly identifiable energy and band sound.
I love their grooves
and flows and I will be looking forward working we these 3 young guys who just released their 2nd
album “Cohesion” on Whirlwind Recordings .They have already excited both BBC and All AboutJazz. I really hope that these young
guys from London town will also excite you.
