Out Friday 19th September, jazz-disruptors Ebi Soda return with their latest album frank dean and andrew, harnessing the chaos born from endless jams in a remote, rented farmhouse. The album dives deeper into their punk approach to jazz, while opening up space for long-nurtured fascinations with electronic textures and cinematic oddities.Pulling back the curtain on it's creation, the band reveals, "The album was recorded at the end of a year of extreme highs and lows. The tensions play out in the music in weird ways... The feeling of the music is very particular, and peculiar. Most UK Jazz music can end up too arranged and neat, or generally optimistic in mood, whereas this album goes the other way in all aspects."The album fluctuates between focusing on ambience and reverb, drawing from UK dubstep influences like Zomby, Burial, and Joe Armon-Jones' collaborations with Maxwell Owin, and embracing the raw, grainy DIY 'mixtape' sound, inspired by artists like Athletic Progression, Yameii Online, and Playboi Carti.
