REVIEW:

soundcolourvibration.com

"A four song EP full of hypnotic productions, it’s a sound that is soothing, relaxing, spacious and smooth, giving off a vibe that compliments the various pathways of life. The synth influence of the 70′s-90′s is a special feature of the album, raising nostalgia in all of the technical key lines that lace around the modern sense of rhythms and bass runs. With grids of melodic layering and drum work, the soul of the music extends with the phrasing on the key lines that are recorded in bigger chunks. Pitch bends that hit those really sweet spots reminiscent of the best fusion jazz in the 90′s, wavering oscillations controlled and recorded live and other minimal enhancements that really bring the music to life. Thrust has a very warm and welcoming sound for the world to absorb and has become a favorite beat record for late night writing sessions."

"Futuristic Nostalgia is a way to describe this brand new offering from JayLotus as he crafts this 4-track “Thrust EP” with vocoder lyrical breaks reminiscent of early Herbie Hancock alongside inspiration from the recent works of Robert Glasper. Space-wave layers with a touch of 90′s inspired Jazz-Fusion, create a soundscape which is rich and warm yet intrinsically delicate with the workings of bang up to date technology."
