Ilhan Ersahin Ilhan Ersahin’s Istanbul Sessions – Solar Plexus

Description

Since 2008 they have set fire to stages all across the world : from NewYork to Istanbul, from Paris to Sao Paolo, from London to Skopje.. Theirelectrifying, genre-crossing performance posed questions: Is this reallyjazz Doesnt this sound like a rock band? Where does their sound comefrom? Its master-level musicianship meeting high eclecticism where theclich of east-to-west crossover finds its true sense and power. Asession is a meeting of a deliberative body to conduct its business. Inthis case, the business is music, and the music is another heavyweightoffering from Ilhan and his crew. Above all, the Istanbul Sessions canaptly be described as cinematic.Their debut (2009) had french trumpeter Erik Truffaz as guest. NightRider, their second release (2012) reflected perfectly their genuinesound in-between dance music and free-form-jazz flavoured by some ethnicspices. Their third (2015) Istanbul Underground was a perfect summary ofnight life of never-sleeping metropolis : Istanbul (it was alsoreviewed as their best studio production so far).Yet, they are getting ready to hit their forth studio album Solar Plexus in 2017; byhaving young genie Dave Harrington (the other half of Darkside withNicolas Jaar) on co-producer seat, Arto Tuncboyaciyan, Nils-PetterMolvr, Mauro Refosco, Kenny Wollesen, Erik Truffaz and Brandon Lewis as special guests, promising totake 21st century music into another eclectic direction where no borderor atmosphere can limit the power of the creativity.01 – OVERTURE SOLAR PLEXUS 2:40 02 – FAREWELL TO EARTH 4:47 03 – INFINITE GATHERING 5:29 04 – PRIS 11:20 05 – RACHAEL & RICK 3:47 06 – JUPITER WINDOW 4:50 07 – MOON DANCE 5:17 08 – LOVE IN SPACE 5:52 09 – SEA OF STARS 3:35 10 – ARRIVAL 2:31
