Jazz and Electronica Meet at ESL
Thursday, the 11th, sees an additional entrant into the musical category that I called "breakbeat jazz" when I wrote about it last year. Grand Pianoramax—keyboardist Leo Tardin, drummer Adam Deitch, Deantoni Parks, and sometimes spoken-word vocalist Celena Glenn—perform a minimal, futuristic combination of jazz and techno...and they will perform it Thursday at the Eighteenth Street Lounge (1212 18th Street NW), with DJ Spinna. It'll be preceded by an in-store appearance at DJ Hut on P Street.
Here's a video sample, recorded at WBGO radio in Newark:
