Keystone

Background: Moonshine, from trumpeter / composer Dave Douglas' Grammy-nominated band, Keystone, is an album that moves musical genres forward into uncharted territory. In this case, the genre is electronica, funk and jazz, the sound of late 1960s Miles Davis, Weather Report, and Herbie Hancock’s Headhunters.

The evolutionary/revolutionary aspect is found in the vibrant alchemy between Douglas’ avant-garde leaning compositions, the relentless, polyrhythmic funk of drummer Gene Lake and bassist Brad Jones, the Sun-Ra-esque sonics of Adam Benjamin who plays a highly modulated Fender Rhodes and the blowing of the front line featuring Douglas and, much in demand, saxophonist Marcus Strickland. But what puts this one over the top is the true integration of a DJ, in this case DJ Olive, into the constantly shifting improvisations of a cutting edge band.
