“If M.C. Escher had led a band, this would be the sound of it.” - Downbeat

PJCE Records, the recording branch of the Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble, is proud to release a new album of music by The Ocular Concern, the genre-bending quintet led by PJCE founder Andrew Oliver on electric piano and former PJCE co-director Dan Duval on guitar. The album was recorded in June 2013, in the same weekend of studio sessions which led to their award-winning 2014 release Sister Cities. The material on The Lost Album was intended to be released soon thereafter, but Oliver’s 2013 move to London for 7 years put the brakes on the project. Now back in Portland, Oliver and Duval are proud to unearth this collection of minimalist, globally inspired and melodic compositions from the archival dusty hard drives.
