The Plastic Jazz Orchestra - 39° (2012)



9.4

/IDM, Experimental electronica, Nu-jazz, Indietronica, Avant-electronica/

Comment: TPJO was established by Bernd Burnson as an ensemble electronique for modern music in late 2006. Although soon thereafter he passed away his ideas do perdure. Indeed, the rhythms and beats coming out of it are poignantly composed, however, having a loads of hints at different genres and fields (indie, jazz, IDM, tango). At times it comes out as quite joyous entertainment, sometimes, on the contrary, providing more epic gliding and shifts. If you are interested in to get the more detailed comparisons for it then you can think of it as an example of how Bang On A Can could sound under the umbrella of Warp Records.
