Throughout Footshooter's new album The Oasis, he helps us revisit our perception of jazz as he bends and warps into a variety of different forms.
The soulful sound of Footshooter is shaped by broken beat, jazz, and house - offering a rich blend that bridges past inspirations with a future-facing vision. One of the stand-out gems from his sonic treasury is "Surrey Canal Road," featuring the talented James Mollison. Thanks to the saxophone's cries, this experience walks a fine line between hopeful and melancholic. At the same time, the rhythm section splashes color across the mix by virtue of the vibrant percussion while the gentle keys offer a moody charm. If you enjoyed this fascinating form of jazz, I'd highly suggest diving into the full album.
