Drop It
'Drop It 'by Mockuno NuClear showcases the adventurous, genre-blending saxophonist Liudas Mockunas alongside a rotating lineup of local talent. This album spans a diverse range of styles, from classical influences to free improvisation, jazz, and fusion. Mockunas' commanding presence on both baritone and soprano saxophones evokes comparisons to Mats Gustafsson, blending powerful blasts with delicate, expressive tones. Highlights include the meditative 'Prelude,' the fusion-tinged 'The Dark Side/The Bright Side,' and the dynamic, rhythm-driven title track. Perfect for fans of avant-garde jazz, 'Drop It' offers an eclectic, high-energy experience that pushes the boundaries of modern improvisation.
