nuspirit helsinki (aka. nu sound collective helsinki) is a helsinki
based collective of dj's, producers and live musicians. the group
consists of the core group of five plus numerous musicians living
in helsinki. thomas k and ender founded nuspirit in 1998. dj lil'
tony and keyboard player, kasio joined the group in the end of the
same year. the fifth member of the core group, eppu joined the team
in late 1999.
nuspirit helsinki has released four singles on us-based guidance
recordings, one track on ubiquity recordings' new latinaires-series
and one on guidance's mundial muzique-compilation. the group is
going to release a full-length album on guidance in the beginning
of 2001.
montana roha jazz ep is featuring some of the finnish top jazz
musicians, including legendary sax-player, eero koivistoinen (best
known for his work in 60ies - 70ies, for example on love-records)
and highly acclaimed young drummer teppo mΣkynen.
the track orson includes a cinematic string arrangement made by
tomi malm who is mostly involved in composing film scores. beat of
the track is performed totally live by the two masters of rhythm:
drummer teppo mΣkynen with his set of drums and ethiopian
percussion wizard abdissa "mamba" assefa playing bongos. these
elements supported by kasio's tasteful rhodes, an acoustic bass
riff and a fat sub bass line make the track is a timeless classic
providing nu-school jazz vibes never heard before.
on the flip side the track seis por ocho is an exploration of 6/8
beats and latin influenced horn arrangements. again the beat is
based on the phenomenal work of live drums and percussion provided
by teppo mΣkynen and mamba. the horn section featuring jukka eskola
on fluegelhorn, aleksi ahoniemi on sax and jay kortehisto on
trombone is flavored with the high voice of the young cuban
vocalist, erick jon. seis por ocho has also a groovy live acoustic
bass line performed by anssi vΣxby.
the third track love bossa features one of the best known finnish
jazz musicians, sax-player eero koivistoinen. The track has a
brazilian-inspired bossa groove with drums, percussion, acoustic
bass, guitar and hammonds that offer the background for touching
jazz sax sounds that can be created only with more than 40 years
experience of playing the instrument." - www.compost-records.com
overall, exciting new sounds from (yet again) compost records. hard
to believe it is all played live. really amazing.
