Review: Tamil Rogeon - Wave Theory (BBE Music)

Yet another super talent from down under, Tamil Rogeon is the only 'Wave Theory' you need this year - BBE are on the crest of the wave!

We were very impressed with the taster single 'Gift Of The Gab'/'Ascend It' (see review HERE) and that's no surprise after having the the seal of approval from Greg Boraman for his 2021 album, 'Son Of Nyx'.

It's not going to be often that you can find a guy and jazzy and funky as a Herbie that's playing a violin/viola!  Not even Jean-luc-Ponty!   And when he's mates with the incredible Audry Powne (vocals/trumpet) as in, 'From The Fire' (see review HERE) we are all in for a proper treat with the six tracks on the album that are all proper 'jazz' length.

The launch party is on 3rd October at BBE HQ (see HERE) so get your tickets now 'cos this really is the hottest ticket in town.

Review: Tamil Rogeon - Gift Of The Gab/Ascend It (BBE Music)

From the home of all things musically good downunder (that's Melbourne don't you know), yet another super talent, Tamil Rogeon!

It's not going to be often that you can find a guy and jazzy and funky as a Herbie that's playing a violinviola!  Not even Jean-luc-Ponty!

Equally Mr. Ponty had more strings to his bow [No pun etc..] and Tamil can turn his hans to modal and spiritual jazz, fusion and classical.  

'Ascend It' gets very 70s Miles/Herbie fusion and if you're into the 100mph jazzdance; this is definitely boiling up to it.

With fans as varied as Laurent Garnier, Rebecca Vasmant, Cerys Matthews and Gilles Peterson (expect Tamil at next years' We Out Here Festival).  That said, you don't need the gift of the gab of these DJs to be talking about this one.
