Icy ECM style jazz quartet led by German pianist Rainer Brüninghaus. Interwoven pianos, synths, flugelhorn, and oboes, backed by a reliably tasteful performance by Jon Christensen. Mesmerizing.
Track listing:
1. Stufen
2. Spielraum
3. Radspuren
4. Die Flüsse Hinauf
5. Täuschung der Luft
6. Freigeweht
One goes there alone
Hey you have good taste and discriminate to boot. This cd/album is a golden "ambient" jazz debut from Eberhard Webers band keyboardist. He released 2 discs on ECM and the second release Continuum is just as good tho a bit more kinetic. This is music that not only carries a level of emotion but of spontaneity and visceral genius!

DeleteAmazing you now have Continuum! Wow ANYONE into ECMs golden era of groundbreaking non trad releases has to d/l these 2 gems. Wish this guy could do a few more solo albums but heck I am glad for these two! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU so much for this and the other ECM albums. I still remember vividly the first time I heard ECM-style jazz....when I was in college...I was blown away and mystified by what I was hearing. It was unlike any jazz or jazz fusion that I had heard before. All these years later, I still love it.
