We’re pleased to be premiering a brand new video from Berlin experimental duo izzjazz today – check it out below – from members Leonard de Leonard and Lukasz Polowczyk aka RQM.
A combination of vibrant, urban-Jazz infused poetry and layered, contemplative, linear musical abstractions, izzjazz is their self tiled debut out now. A compositional triptych which explores the possibilities of creating living “sound and word paintings”, it’s an exercise in crafting sonic art objects as meditations, out of scraps of dreams, visions, hallucinations assembled over electronica flotsam.
Listen to the EP in full here:
The creators of the project are adamant to point out that the piece was not created to please in any aesthetic sense, but rather to create an experience. Multiple listening using headphones is recommended.
As an alternative, the project can also be experienced as a 3D, immersive sound sculpture (as an installation or live) thanks to the collaboration with immersive sound designers Taucher, and their new software called MNTN. A binaural emulation of one of these sound sculptures made for the song “izzjazz” will be made available in wav format and as a project session, real soon.
