Satin Doll
“On his Nonesuch debut, the innovative saxophonist reinvents jazz standards with a psychedelic hip-hop touch.”
blueblue
“On a softly melancholic new album, the Los Angeles musician offers a concentration of his strengths in service of one sharpened, sustained mood.”
AUDIOBOOK
“The Los Angeles multi-instrumentalist improvised alongside his partner while she illustrated on paper; together, they’ve created an audiovisual album bursting with bold lines and vivid colors.”
COOKUP
“The ambient-jazz saxophonist offers unpredictable, impressionistic takes on R&B hits from the ’90s and early ’00s, tackling songs by Beyoncé, Aaliyah, and Erykah Badu.”
SUPERSTORE
“The hyper-prolific Los Angeles saxophonist again opens his archive of ambient sketches, cloud-rap beats, and jazz experiments. It’s a far more compact package than last year’s sprawling Fresh Bread.”
4444
“Sam Gendel’s smoothly psychedelic debut is dominated by the guitarist and saxophonist’s tip-toed melodies and hushed voice.”
