Josh Alexander Bright Morning Jetlag Blues 2020  24-44.1

LEES: moest bij mij stevig gerepareerd worden, maar - nog niet afgeluisterd - kwam daarna compleet binnen

Josh Alexander created a stunning debut with Hiraeth in 2018. His whole approach to that album was around dainty synths and hazy pianos. For his follow up EP ‘Bright Morning Jetlag Blues’, the hazy and intimate pianos stay but the electrics are largely replaced with smeared string tapestries. This pulls Josh Alexander into a different arena and this whole EP makes me feel like I’ve listened to a crisp winter morning.

Across the six tracks, we have the piano leading the way in a variety of different recording styles. In ‘Casper’s Theme’ you’ll hear the hammers up close. ‘Winter Garden’ is far more stately and regal. ‘Parallax’ interestingly mixes the two styles together as if they are passing each other by. The melodies aren’t always ones that stick in the mind immediately but they evoke wistful but perky energy. It is like you are a bird popping you head out of your snow-capped nest.
