Trio T÷ykeΣt will release their new WAKE album August 31st on the
legendary Blue Note jazz label. ôThis is the best album weÆve ever
doneö, says Iiro Rantala from Trio T÷ykeΣt. ôBlowing my own horn has
nothing to do with it! ItÆs a cold fact, IÆm just laying it out as it
is. WeÆve played together for 17 years and a band this old canÆt
afford to put out a bad recording."
The newly born masterpiece contains nine tracks written by the band,
and two arrangements from covers. Wake is an eagerly awaited release;
itÆs been five years since Trio T÷ykeΣt have recorded any original
material. Their previous release High Standards was exactly that, a
collection of standards.
The band is especially happy with their new songs. ôThe compositions
are the strongest element in Wake. We got rid of the loose tracks and
the rest just works like a rooster on a hen-house", Iiro says. ôWe cut
the ævirtuoso stuffÆ to the minimum and IÆm convinced that Wake is
definitely a listener-friendly album. ItÆs groovy and has balls.ö
The album not only includes compositions by pianist Iiro Rantala, but
also one from bassplayer Eerik Siikasaari and two from drummer Rami
Eskelinen. In addition to the Duke Ellington classic In A Sentimental
Mood, the band has given a unique T÷ykeΣt treatment to the perhaps
lesser known Kenny Barron piece Voyage. In addition to the fact that
Wake is the bandÆs best performance so far, it is also the most
comprehensive and balanced T÷ykeΣt album.
T÷ykeΣt takes global steps
Trio T÷ykeΣt is the most successful and best-known Finnish jazz act to
date. Their career spans over 2000 gigs in 43 countries and all five
continents. This year the band picks up the pace with a two-week tour
to Asia, in some concert halls seating over 2000. ôThis is our biggest
tour everö, says Rantala. Besides Asia the band has stormed
continental-European festivals and concert halls. In the past few
years their success has grown particularly in Germany, where they this
year play more gigs than in Finland.
Same line-up for 17 years
Trio T÷ykeΣt was formed ôaccidentallyö in 1988. With the exception of
the trioÆs first two months, the line-up (Iiro Rantala û piano, Rami
Eskelinen û drums, and Eerik Siikasaari û bass) has stayed the same.
In their long-spanning career, T÷ykeΣt have released new material
sparsely, Wake being the sixth album release. Their debut PΣivΣΣ was
released in 1990 (the international release was titled GÆday and was
released in 1993), Jazzlantis in 1995, Sisu (Guts) in 1997, Kudos
(Fabric) in 2000, and their first Blue Note release High Standards in
2003.
NOTES: End of the track09 is strange but it's like that on the
