Raiz de Pedra (Brazil)

This album presents one of the most interesting Brazilien groups - the instrumental quintet Raiz De Pedra from Brazil. Although often referred to as a jazz group, they play a completely original type of music, with a lot of jazzy influences but very far from conventional jazz. In fact they are much closer to Rio groups, like Univers Zero, than to any mainstream jazz. Fronted by the excellent reeds and flute player Márcio Tubino, they play their “far out” music with ease and elegance. The compositions are very unconventional, with offbeat rhythms and tempos. The guitar and keyboards (when not soloing) often support the saxophone by creating layers of electronic sounds and the rhythm section (strengthened by a guest percussionist) provides a polyrhythmic drive. In short this is one of those uncanny albums that make your ears stand up when you hear it for the first time and tempt you to return to it time after time to really get it all. Warmly recommended.
