Ripper's note: My scanner was unable to pick up the bright
yellow of the disc, apologies for that.
Born in Tel Aviv, multi-instrumentalist Koby Israelite has
been playing music since the age of nine. Conservatory trained
on piano and keyboards, he was drawn to punk and heavy metal
as a teenager, switched to drums and then got turned on to
Jazz, World Music and the Downtown Scene. For his third Tzadik
CD, this tireless and ever creative musical spirit turns his
hand to the complex lyricism of Zorn's complex Book of Angels.
Interpreting tunes handpicked by Zorn himself, Koby mixes in
everything he knows, including metal, jazz, gypsy and klezmer
with stylish flair and great virtuosity. Naked City, Zappa,
Taraf de Haidouks and Fantomas all rolled into one, this is an
amazing orchestral achievement by an exciting young musical
adventurer.
