THE NEW RECORD

Todd Caldwell’s latest project emerges from a shared love for the jazz organ trio. The resulting collaboration of Caldwell and New York guitarist and composer Chris Parker, the album takes shape as a dark, moody exploration that expands the jazz organ trio sound. After a series of local gigs honing these new songs, Todd and Chris headed to the studio, bringing in the accomplished drummer Josh Dion (Paris Monster, John Scofield) to complete the trio.

Recorded in one day at Atomic Sound in Red Hook, Brooklyn, the resulting album is a sonic experience that pulls listeners into an immersive, intimate world. With Josh Dion's impeccable sensitivity and groove paired with Chris Parker’s distinct voice on guitar, the trio creates a unique texture in today’s jazz landscape—one that balances complexity with an understated emotional depth and a reverence to melody. Caldwell’s Hammond organ fills the space with a voice both earthy and ethereal, weaving effortlessly between harmony and rhythm.

Symbiosis of electronic and acoustic sounds (Electronica, IDM, Fusion)

The Berlin based musicians Kai Kreowski (“bogsy”) and Mark Beumer (“Grey Paris”) are going on a musical journey to find new soundscapes and musical structures: On their way they combine electronic beats and analogue synthesizers with acoustic instruments like piano, bass, clarinet and guitar. These explorative processes are recorded simultaneously and improvised structures develop to multilayered compositions that cross musical genres and create a mélange of jazz, electronic and neo classical music.
