CD ‘On Remote Patrol’

Michael Baird

Pygmees or Elephants? Mashona or Ivanov? Loxo or Nusch? Strut or Foundling? A continuing original view on Europe/Africa and modern music, Michael Baird’s Voodoo-jazz continues on this album.

“There are few contemporary productions where African polyrhythms, western composition techniques and jazzy improvisations are mixed in such a fresh and surprising way.” (Jazz Nu, NL)
