Artist: Interstellar Tentet
Song: The Subterraneans
Recorded at The Tranzac's Main Hall (Somewhere There Creative Music Festival – Show 3), February 27, 2016.
Interstellar Tentet - The SubterraneansWith most of the personnel1 overlapping from Jay Hay's Interstellar Orchestra, the alternate name here seems to be used somewhat interchangeably. There's definitely the same exploration/deconstruction of jazz tropes — like in this Jay Hay original, with its title redolent of beat-era bop lasciviousness, or in Joe Sorbara's composition "The Blues" that takes a rangy ramble through its chosen terrain — all of it intricately arranged but never hermetically sealed.
1 Just for posterity's sake, I should note that the lineup at this show was:
- Jay Hay, Jeremy Strachan, Karen Ng – saxophone
- Nick Buligan, Nicole Rampersaud – trumpet
- Tom Richards, Heather Saumer – trombone
- Scott Peterson – double bass
- Mike Smith – synth
- Joe Sorbara – percussion
