Kick off your musical journey today with Melbourne guitarist Nick Freer and his latest albumApperseptions . From the Netherlands, Eelco Van Zanten shares Eel Fusionkastel followed by Canadian guitarist Joel Grundahl. British drummer Gavin Harrison joins forces with guitarist Nick Johnson and bassist Evan Marien for some stand out fusion, then a ballad with bite from The Outernet featuring Phil Turcio. Pat Petrillo brings fresh drum energy and we wrap up the new releases with Saxophonist David Binney and drummer Tommy Crane's powerful contribution. We then travel through time with a global fusion mix from 1991-2010. Highlights include Steve Coleman M Base rhythms, grooves from Germany's Anika Nilles, Swiss band Trinity experiment, Dutch trumpeter Eric Vloeimans, Indonesian duo Dwiki Dharmawan and Tohpati, Hungarian drummer Gergo Borlai and we finish with Italian band Electric Arc. A boundary-crossing celebration of fusion and rhythm—past and present.
