about
‘Chrysalis’ is composed by keys and synth bass maestro Aidan Shepherd and is inspired by the playing of pianist and British jazz legend John Taylor, who had something of an obsession with music in 3/4 time. ‘Chrysalis’ breaks into two distinct parts; kicking off with with Ruby Ruston’s signature tight, snappy melodies and driving groove, then reversing back into the bands carefree ‘Two for Joy’ sound of 2015, when the bass is given a rare chance to come to the forefront by
joining the flute and trumpet melody. Herbie Hancock’s classic track ‘Butterfly’ has become a staple in the bands set, so the snappy melodies and driving groove of ‘Chrysalis’ represent the restless
energy of the butterfly about to emerge from it's chrysalis.

The six songs on this record combine the brass-heavy sounds of jazz and afrobeat with pulsing dance beats to intoxicating effect. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 25, 2020
I somehow landed here by chance. I've read the supporting comments and looked at the number of musicians and instruments involved. What a hell of a task to put this together. It takes so much from common understanding to arrangement skills and mixing style. They've mastestered it all and created an orchestral feat. Thanks for the music and the reviews. freejazzy
