Product Description
CD Description
Refuge is the latest album from renowned world-bop saxophonist, composer and band leader Gilad Atzmon. Drawing on jazz, electronica, Arabic music and the urban sounds of the 21st century it s a potent brew taking the listener to a space beyonds words. Arguably Atzmon s most powerful album it is less overtly political than 2005 s musiK or his recent Artie Fishel project, but like 2003 s Exile still packs an explosive punch. Shifting seamlessly from beautiful jazz-noir and catchy world gooves to hard-blowing heavy metal bebop, Refuge offers music for the heart, soul and head. It also marks the return of Atzmon s Orient House Ensemble featuring long term partners Frank Harrison piano, keys and electronics, Yaron Stavi double and electric bass, Asaf Sirkis drums and Atzmon himself on saxophones and electronics. The band s genuine empathy and powerful interplay allows them to explore new structures as well as play Atzmon s expressive music with the intensity and verve which is at the heart of the best jazz. Hard-hitting but deeply thoughtful, this is the sound of a band running headlong into the future.
