Tara

For his third record, Aapo Heinonen has created a refreshingly unique sound, a relaxed whirlwind of fusion-grooves, Latin swing and modal-jazz-melodies – all embedded into stimulatingly complex arrangements.

To arrive at this point, the keyboard virtuoso has turned his quintet upside down. Recorded on a hot Summer weekend and under the hallucinatory influence of a flu infection, Tara sports an intoxicating sound, offering plenty of freedom to all participants.
