About the Album

Out on August 2nd, this is the first 2-track-single announcing drummer and composer Peter Gall’s upcoming album “Love Avatar”, to be released on 27th of September ’24. 'Love Avatar' is the album's eponymous opener immediately igniting with an up-tempo fusion beat - the band's frontline immediately sets the tone with rousing guitar, saxophone and piano solos. It's a high- energy ride that quietly reminds you of Weather Report and repeatedly catapults you into another world completely out of the blue. Mellotron strings and flutes appear here and there, accompanied by wide synth pads, conjuring up St. Pepper-like collages. The contrast between these sometimes surreal sounds and the great acoustic side of the band with their impressive instrumental skills runs like a red thread through the album and is due to Peter Gall's playfulness in post-production and his love of classic analog synths such as the dirty MS-20 or the legendary Prophet 5. About Peter Gall: Six years have passed since Peter Gall's sensational debut album "Paradox Dreambox" saw the light of day. His diverse sideman work has sharpened his eye for the big musical picture during this time - whether as a stylistically confident accompanist for world-famous groups such as New York Voices or Take 6, playing classical jazz with the NDR Big Band or as the driving force behind the drums of the spiritual jazz group Web Web, including intensive work with its producers Roberto Di Gioia and Max Herre. Gall is now drumming in the first ranks of the German jazz scene and is also causing a stir internationally. "A new milestone from my favorite jazz drummer Peter Gall. An album of great energetic, atmospheric and playful density. Ten songs, ten stories." Max Herre
