MaxMantis - Blue (2022) [Hi-Res]

Behind the Pseudonyms of Jeff Mantis, Rex Mantis, and Bob Mantis are the three Swiss jazz musicians Lukas Gernet (p), Rafael Jerjen (b) and Samuel Büttiker (dr). Three unique high-calibre artists, that through their performance of musical themes, jingles and free improvisation tell the ongoing stories surrounding the MaxMantis Clan; in other words Marvel meets DC meets Jazz. Every hero, every ally and every villain has their own theme which is used as a catalyst to create music in the moment. Energy, joy and group interaction are certainly key words that describe how this trio morphs the disciplines of free and structured jazz into their own breed of music that is flexible and free yet unified and purely unique.
