Gian Luigi Diana & Jimmy Johnsen - MU

Review by Lindsay Putnam

MU, the collaborative album by Gian Luigi Diana and Jimmy Johnsen, is a mesmerizing blend of experimental jazz and electronic music. From the very first track, the listener is transported to a world of intricate rhythms and haunting melodies, where traditional instruments like saxophone and trumpet are combined with electronic beats and soundscapes.

The album is a testament to the creative synergy between Diana and Johnsen, who seamlessly blend their distinct styles and influences to create something entirely new and unique. Tracks like "Astral Travel" and "Nebula" showcase the duo's mastery of improvisation, as they explore a range of sonic textures and moods.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Dawn Chorus," a hauntingly beautiful piece that features Diana's soulful saxophone playing over Johnsen's atmospheric synths and pulsing beats. The track builds to a crescendo of frenzied saxophone lines and glitchy electronics, creating a sense of tension and release that is both exhilarating and cathartic.

Notes

  • We are not judging the consequences of a Tsunami, the deaths, destruction and desolation.
  • We see the Tsunami has a mysterious power, a raw and naked power that belong to Nature.
  • We are interested in this sudden release of energy.
  • Seeing the images with no sounds of the recent Tsunami in Japan, We tried to imagine how we could put into sound this raw natural power that only a FREE IMPROVISATION can give the opportunity to express it.
