Roebke, Jason -octet-

Cinema Spiral

Jason Roebke's 'Cinema Spiral,' his second octet release following 'High/Red/Center' (2014), showcases a masterful balance of structure and free improvisation. Featuring a stellar lineup from the Chicago jazz scene - including Greg Ward, Keefe Jackson, and Josh Berman - the album turns apparent chaos into dynamic, coherent artistry. Tracks like 'People Laughing' evolve from frenetic beginnings into intricate, organic compositions, while 'L'Acmé' offers a catchy, orchestrated melody. Roebke gives his musicians the freedom to explore, resulting in a rich, unpredictable sound filled with yowling saxophones, snarling bass clarinet, and ringing vibraphone.
