A gorgeous album from Dave Zinno Unisphere, capturing the energy and anticipation of the post-pandemic jazz scene.

Dave Zinno's Unisphere offers a remarkable new album, 'Fetish,' emerging after a challenging period for the jazz community. The album is a testament to the creativity and resilience of Zinno and his bandmates--Mike Tucker on tenor sax, Eric 'Benny' Bloom on trumpet and flugelhorn, Leo Genovese on keyboards, Tim Ray on piano, Rafael Barata on drums and percussion, with special guest Rafael Rocha on trombone. In the wake of months without live performances, Unisphere used the time to craft this exquisite collection of music, blending vibrant tonal colors and diverse sonic textures. Each member contributed compositions or arrangements, reflecting the rich diversity and collaborative spirit of the group. The album, produced during a period of musical pause, resonates with the anticipation and excitement of returning to the stage.

Zinno describes *Fetish* as a culmination of energy and ambition stored up from the absence of live music. The tracks capture a range of emotions and styles, from jubilant and rapturous to introspective and reflective. With tracks like 'Fetish,' 'Unknown Mystery,' and 'Over The Horizon,' the album presents a panorama of sound that evokes the primal release of aural energy. It is not just a musical project but a cathartic experience, embodying the collective hope and renewed vigor of artists eager to reconnect with their audience. 'Fetish' stands as a powerful reminder of the joy and vitality that live music brings, marking a triumphant return to form for Zinno and his ensemble.
