Out to Lunch

by Otomo Yoshihide's New Jazz Orchestra

Out to Lunch cover art

Reinterpreting Eric Dolphy's avant-garde masterpiece of the same name, Otomo Yoshihide leads a sprawling ensemble through radical electroacoustic reconstructions. The recording balances chaotic bursts of free improvisation and harsh digital noise with structural reverence for the source material, creating a demanding bridge between jazz tradition and the Japanese Onkyo movement.
