about
Steeped in classic dancefloor rhythms and sounds, ARTIFACTUAL RHYTHM presents a re-interpretation of club and DJ music through the lens of a live band with a jazz edge. Tapping into sounds of the 90s and 2000’s while keeping his foot very firmly in the now and beyond, Flood’s new body of work is both for the dancefloor and the listener.
Dubbed “nu-jazz”, “jazztronica” and “jazz house music”, at its core Alex’s sound takes influence from house, UK garage, drum n’ bass, and broken beat. “Artifactual” can be defined as “made by human hands”, and that’s exactly what Alex explores with this record; taking sounds and styles that are inherently electronic and giving them new life through the rawness of a live band underpinned by jazz and improvisational explorations. Music made by human hands.
Recorded live in a studio in Naarm / Melbourne and engineered, mixed, and co-produced by Lewis Moody (Energy Exchange Records), the album features a list of some of the finest players “Down Under” including Erica Tucceri (flute), Finn Rees (keyboards), Dylan Paul (bass), as well as guest vocal features from the lyrical legend Cazeaux O.S.L.O on LIFE IS A RHYTHM, Kara Manasala on UK garage cut DON’T WAIT 4 ME, and New York soul queen Vivian Sessoms heating up some classic house energy on CAN’T GET ENOUGH.
Short Text:
Alexander Flood’s upcoming album, ARTIFACTUAL RHYTHM, merges classic dancefloor sounds with a jazz-influenced live band arrangement, drawing from the musical styles of the 90s and 2000s while incorporating contemporary elements. This fusion creates a rich listening experience suitable for both dance settings and casual enjoyment. Recorded live in Naarm/Melbourne, the album features a talented group of musicians and guest vocalists, like Cazeaux O.S.L.O and Vivian Sessoms, emphasizing the theme of human craftsmanship in music through a fresh take on electronic sounds.
