Shortly following the release of 恋愛至上主義 / Love Supremacism, Alexander Dubovoy is proud to release his new improvised solo piano EP Don’t Hate the Potate on Adhyâropa Records.

Though each piece was improvised on-site, the goal was to have them be focused and structurally clear. The inspiration for the album is the bizarre 2017 advertising campaign “Love Potatoes” in which the EU spent millions ...

I'm always amazed when young musicians and singers today are passionate about and obsessed with a long-ago jazz era. I just assume that given a choice, these artists would rather stick with post-war jazz movements—from bebop to fusion and beyond.
