Independent groove label Sdban Records release
Utopic Cities: Progressive Jazz in Belgium 1968-1979
featuring twelve essential compositions from a highly creative period in Belgian jazz. The release follows Sdban's critically acclaimed
Let's Get Swinging: Modern Jazz in Belgium 1950-1970
, released back in 2017.
Utopic Cities
is an eclectic selection of forward-thinking jazz from the Belgian underground, including the left-field fusion of
Marc Moulin
's
Placebo
,
Koen De Bruyne
, and
Solis Lacus
; the intense post-bop of
Jacques Pelzer
and
Lou MacConnell
; the cutting-edge soul jazz of
Philip Catherine
and
Open Sky Unit
or the otherworldly avant-garde of
Babs Robert
and the
Brussels Art Quintet
. Recorded in the aftermath of the revolutionary year 1968, this music is the fruit of a highly creative momentum in Belgian jazz history that produced a unique sound which distinguishes itself from its American source of inspiration by an indefinable characteristic that can be hardly better described than "Belgian". Features Placebo, Solis Lacus, Open Sky Unit, Brussels Art Quintet, Koen De Bruyne,
Raphaël
, Philip Catherine,
Jacques & Micheline Pelzer Quartet
,
The Kenny Clarke-Francy Boland Big Band
, Marc Moulin, Babs Robert, and Lou MacConnell.
