Gerald Clayton - Ones & Twos (Expanded Edition) (2025) [Hi-Res]

Pianist and composer Gerald Clayton is set to unveil Ones & Twos: Expanded Edition on May 30, an expanded digital release of his 3rd Blue Note album which presents the culmination of the project. “Ones & Twos is an experiment—an idea inspired by the art of turntablism,” says Clayton. “I set out to create a record where the A side can be played simultaneously with the B side—a nod to that moment in the club when the DJ transitions from one song to the next, when you hear two separate pieces at the same time.”

The initial release of Ones & Twos consisted of the separated tracks featuring vibraphonist Joel Ross, flutist Elena Pinderhughes, trumpeter Marquis Hill, and drummer Kendrick Scott with post-production by Kassa Overall. The Expanded Edition includes two bonus tracks plus a second disc consisting of the combined overlayed tracks, revealing the end result of his experiment.
