Excursion Into Digital Jazz says the little sticker on the CD sleeve, and truly this is what you get listening to Rather Interesting's new release produced by The Roger Tubesound Ensemble. 12 masterpieces of binary jazz, between neo be-bop, cool jazz and freestyle abstractness as demonstrated on Spread Optics, without loosing the sense of humour, not taking it too serious again, Pentatonic Surprise is safely navigating through the oceans of syncopated rhythms, cool piano solos, looping harddisks and breathtaking stereo separation, without simply becoming another retro jazz recording. Roger Tubesound wins by featuring the bits and bytes of life...
