Description
xFinal Floor is eleven new tracks featuring saxophonist Kamasi Washington and trumpeter Erik Jekabson with longtime collaborators and songwriters Matt Montgomery and Gregory Howe. Joining them are Mike Hughes and on drums, Kasey Knudsen on alto saxophone, Ross Howe on fender guitar and Mike Blankenship on organ.As the title indicates this album represents the final original recordings of Throttle Elevator Music. Final Floor has an upscale energy with elements of rock and punk that fuel the overall sound and dynamically bring an edge back to jazz. REVIEW Reaching back a decade to craft this set of the last original music in the can from this crew, they crafted their own space claiming it as subliminal jazz. You can't pigeon hold it with any of the easy reliable tags. The closest you can probably come to describing it to the uninitiated is ECM but not quite. Top shelf sitting down/thinking man's jazz, you don't have to be an egghead to dig it. A fine farewell. Chris Spector --Midwest Record review 1/15/2021
