Polaroids From The Edge by Larry Jefferson #modaltechno #jazz
A swerve from Larry Jefferson. The pastoral techno explorations of yore are somewhat relegated in favour of combining jazz forms with electronics. The release is a two-tracker entitled Polaroids From The Edge. On the title track there are hints here and there of former pastoral acid pastures but largely we’re in double bass, trumpet and lounge piano. It’s all very chilled and a touch genteel. Nearly There adds a little dub to the mix before some Rhodes come in. Squally electronics get added later but this tune feels unfinished. Stick to the title track.
