Deidre House More progressive jazz from France. This group braids angular polyrhythms with lilting melodies/solos along with a few surprises including an exquisite guest scat vocalist on a couple tracks for an intriguingly diverse overall package. Favorite track: Polymorphisme.

about

Circonflexe: cyclic claves, flexed execution, circumspect circles. The concept of this album revolves around claves, rhythmic patterns which unite the musicians and distinguish each track. Some tracks are based on a simple clave such as 1 2 3 2 or RER, while others feature complex patterns like in the introduction of 8 plus 7 for which the album artwork gives the score. Polyrhythms are particularly present throughout 2 virgule 4 and reach an interesting arpeggio step before the last theme. Triades concludes the album with a symmetric ascending and descending chord progression highlighted by a tune jointly played by 4 melodic instruments.

This album features two guests: Olivier Koundouno and YéYé Toon. Olivier Koundouno's cello dances on the interweaving background of MMM, a trance balanced between the written score and improvisations. YéYé Toon's unique scatting style is featured in Polymorphisme, a multiple time scale tune, and in Daga dit Gouda, a piece based on a scattered jungle drum line.
