Review by Álvaro López Millán

Elker is the latest album by Koplant No, a jazz-fusion band known for their experimental sound and unique approach to music. The album features eight tracks, each one showcasing the band's signature style and creative energy.

From the opening track "Elker" to the closing song "Flee," the album takes the listener on a journey through different moods and emotions. The band's use of unconventional instruments, such as the electric bassoon and the MIDI wind controller, adds a distinct flavor to the music.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The End of the World," which features a haunting melody and a driving rhythm that builds to a powerful climax. Another highlight is "Twisted," a funky tune with a catchy hook that will have listeners tapping their feet.

About Koplant No

Koplant No is a forward-thinking, cinematic electro-jazz ensemble that fuses intricate compositions and jazz improvisation with electronica, progressive rock, and hip-hop. Called "one of the most innovative ensembles in the Midwest" by Minnesota Public Radio's David Cazares, they are the recipients of a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and have performed at venues across the country in New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, Washington D.C., St. Louis, and at the 2015 World Saxophone Congress in Strasbourg, France. Their potent music has the rare ability to satiate the most discriminating jazz aficionados, while completely disarming the anti-jazz crowd, and has been described as a textural feast for the minds eye." Koplant No is: Joel Vanderheyden (tenor saxophone), Brian Lewis Smith (trumpet, laptop, keys), Drew Morton (bass, synth), and Rob Baner (drums, loops, vibes).
