The legend that is bassist, producer and composer Sam Wilkes<\/a>, a key player in the Los Angeles\u2019 contemporary jazz scene, released last week his second full-length album, One Theme & Subsequent Improvisation<\/em>, through Leaving Records<\/a>. The album sprouted from one improvisational recording session also featuring two drummers, a Maestro Rhythm King drum machine, and two synthesists, who played “one repetitive theme that led to two subsequent movements of improvisation”, as the press release explains. Wilkes then tried “find new music through an immersive process” and “decided to destroy the audio of predetermined sections of the music through tape, sampling, and effects experiments.”
\nOne Theme & Subsequent Improvisation<\/em> is one of those records that you can’t put away. Get a taste with ‘The Drums’ below.<\/p>\n
