Go!

by Besaxung

supported by

noahvf An exciting exploration into quarter-tone saxophone. After a few listens, the new harmonies really start to take on a warmer tone with Gerschlauer's interesting compositions. Favorite track: House of Cards.

about

"This CD is based on the idea that quarter-tone melodies can be accompanied by either a regular-tuned piano or a microtonal piano. While the tuning clashes with the regular piano, suprisingly homogenous sounds occur with the microtonal piano."

about

Besaxung Cologne, Germany

"The music of this typically instrumentated Jazzquartet is no less than exciting, powerful, fascinating, harsh and fast. Besaxung draws a big bow between tradition and modernity… the impressive maturity of the compositions and improvisations is astonishing by every listening. "

This is the sound that I hear in my head and search for.. I loved this whole album. Bright synthesizers, smooth synthesizers, chiptune synths, and Buddhist bells 🔔 Desert Island Rain started to feel like an old Jean Michel Jarre song at one point. I really can’t pick a favorite yet, there all so good! I look forward to listening to all the music Sevish creates. 100% recommended! Dionysus Virus
