Paul Dunmall - Red Hot Ice (2024) [Hi-Res]

Dunmall continues his run of very special releases on Discus Music.

Working with a nine piece group centred around his Birmingham based colleagues, and which includes double keys and electronics, Dunmall delivers a swirling mix of spacey big band music which breaks down into atmospheric and exciting open ended improvisations from time to time. Paul considers this to be a milestone release, and one which is unlike anything else in his extensive discography.
