3 by The Dark Jazz Project

A 20-track monster of a double album. At nearly 2 hours running time 3 traverse a vast terrain of sound, diving deep into the dark abyss of electronic music. Choc-a-block with musical ideas, with rhythms and textures that lurch unpredictably from chaos to ear-splitting jazz noise. And yet, through it all, the band always retains a musical honesty at its heart.

Loosely formulated around a Play, written by Andrew Spackman, in 3 Acts called "DEAD KING". A story, which follows a medieval king who finds himself caught in a time paradox after discovering a magical creature with endless energy-giving qualities.

“It’s weird, it’s interesting, it’s challenging, maybe slightly discombobulating as well” Jamz Supernova - BBC 6 Music

“More bite than a cage of hungry wildcats” Mat Smith - Electronic Sound Magazine

“Like a moon-guided abstract fear; a ghostly voyage aboard a Kubrickian, Lovecraftian and Tarkovskyian space freighter this new vision scopes lunar caverns and the deep cosmos.” Monolith Cocktail

The Dark Jazz Project is an experimental adventure into the abyss by Musician and Composer Andrew Spackman (SAD MAN, Nimzo- Indian). Here he brings his typically quixotic and mercurial approach, fusing Jazzcore, free improvisation, dark ambience into a melting pot of noise, rhythmic chaos to create a dark and unsettled future. Think Sun Ra meets Vladislav Delay.
