Feet Music - Atomic |
|
| Description: |
Atomic's debut album "Feet Music" presents the latest instalment of
exciting and creative new jazz from Jazzland. One of the key bands of
the 'new wave' of Scandinavian jazz currently attracting much press
attention, Atomic brings together five important young musicians from
the adventurous jazz underground of Sweden and Norway. Formed in spring
1999, they quickly forged a strong group identity without sacrificing
individual freedom of expression. Combining the powerful, cutting edge
Oslo rhythm section of Håvard Wiik on piano, Ingebrigt Håker Flaten on
bass and Paal Nilssen-Love on drums -- a combination that received rave
notices as the rhythm team of the Coltrane-influenced 'cult' group
Element -- with the Stockholm front-line of trumpeter Magnus Broo and
saxophonist Fredrik Ljungkvist, this group are one of the freshest
acoustic ensembles to have emerged in the new millennium.
