This record pulls you in like few I've heard before, it's just a processed saxophone and some grooves just laying underneath but naggingly so addictive. Everything feels so close, like a comfy coat that's rhythmically controlling your breathing and heart-rate. Honestly, the grooves are just so naggingly addictive.
Josh Johnson's Unusual Object is a world of sound - His fantastically processed saxophone & subtle samples & grooves give this work a sort of cyberpunk ambient jazz feel that crosses into realms akin to classic Warp Records and Jon Hassell
These qualities serve to bring the listener closer to Johnson, to his breath, his sense of song. In 2023, Johnson was grammy-nominated for producing Meshell Ndegeocello's The Omnichord Real Book (Blue Note).
