Review by Giampaolo Spinato

Near The Noise, the latest album by Jivaros Quartet, is a masterful display of instrumental prowess and musical innovation. The quartet, consisting of saxophonist Matt Renzi, guitarist Lionel Loueke, bassist Ben Street, and drummer Ferenc Nemeth, have created a truly unique sound that blends elements of jazz, world music, and avant-garde experimentation.

From the opening track, "Mudita," the listener is transported to a world of intricate rhythms and complex melodies, as the quartet weaves together a tapestry of sound that is both intricate and captivating. Tracks like "Glimpse" and "Hypnotic" showcase the quartet's ability to create lush, atmospheric soundscapes that are both haunting and beautiful.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Sonic," which features Loueke's virtuosic guitar work and Renzi's soaring saxophone lines. The track builds to a frenzied climax, with Nemeth's thunderous drumming driving the quartet forward to new heights of musical intensity.

Comments

Wow- thanks so much that somebody uploaded something by this fantastic band !!! In the 80s when I lived in Switzerland I heard them on the radio (DRS 3 :Sounds) several times, & I had Empty Land (=TOTALLY awesome!) & Postcards on tape. I was actually looking for Empty Land, but 1000 Miles... is really excellent (& a bit similar) as well.
Can anybody please please upload Empty Land by Jivaros Quartet? Or any other music by them = extremely welcome!
