Description
Chuwanaga proudly presents Jasual Cazz’s inaugural album « Memory Guard ». Delving into the heart of jazz fusion, the French trio bridges the nostalgia of bygone years and the avant-garde essence of tomorrow.
Memory Guard surely brings some flavours of the seventies and eighties era with their vintage synthesizers. « Better Before », the joyful « Double Comète » or even « Tell Tale » re-enact this legacy while keeping it always groovy and thoughtful.
But, as if plucked from the ethereal realm of dreams, « Tell Tale », « Mèches » or « Libellule » sound like hidden places, mysterious pieces of music and time where the memory moves forwards.
In the meantime, « Temple », « Jungle Meat » or « L’Arche » venture into modern sonic realms, embracing post-jungle influences that propel jazz into uncharted territories. Body and mind can now synchronize.
Painting an auditory landscape that unfolds in a myriad of hues and forms, Memory Guard really follows the inventiveness of the actual jazz scene but with the emotional intelligence of the French jazz-funk heritage.
Jasual Cazz is the brainchild of Theo Boero on bass, Pierre-Louis Vanier on keys, and Japhet Boristhene on drums, hailing from the vibrant city of Lyon, France.
