Eating Standing
Saheb Sarbib – Evil Season LP
Regular price
€41.99
The bass, that metronome that marks the time for musicians of every style, of every era, that secluded, silent, but essential character for a band. Without the bass, the music would be deflated, the heart notes would leave a wasteland of rowdy high frequencies without any rules. But bass players who have character can elevate those low frequencies and even make them loud at times.
Who knows if free jazz, if we want to call it that, is exalted by the Arabic background, those semitones between the first and second degree that also make the bass sparkling? In his records, Saheb Sarbib elevates the bass to a mother instrument, gives it life as vibrant as the spring that is coming. Solos are on par with that of the reeds and stand up to listening without waiting for another antagonist to return to take back the scene. Take a tour of the world of Saheb!
Personnel:
Alto Saxophone, Bass Clarinet, Percussion – Daunik Lazro
Double Bass, Reeds, Flute, Percussion – Saheb Sarbib
Drums, Percussion – Jonathan Dickinson
Electric Piano, Piano, Percussion – Manuel Resende
