Famed Finnish pianist Iiro Rantala decided to put together one hell of a trio and not tell anyone this side of the pond about it. It's a shame that this album is so damned hard to find in the US.Tracklist:
Although Rantala seems to be the driving force behind the trio (he probably gets a bit more soloing time than guitarist Marzi Nyman), the three always seem to be in perfect unison. Rantala's classical training is evident with a good number of trills and fast runs thrown in, but his style is never overly academic. You can hear a whole host of styles coming from his piano, from ragtime to bossa nova, that are interwoven so masterfully you'll miss something if you look away for a second. Nyman's guitar is a bit more fusion and rock oriented and he often adds playful responses and a harder edge to Rantala's melodies. Felix Zenger's beatboxing might seem gimmicky on paper, but his rapid fire delivery and the wide range of sounds he can produce makes him just as interesting as the rest of the trio. At times, you wouldn't believe that the only percussion the band has is just Zenger's mouth and a microphone.
The album as a whole manages to nail that hard-to-find balance between catchiness and complexity, that point where all the songs are incredibly infectious yet there's always something more to be found and appreciated. That's what makes for such an accessible yet intricately subtle album.
