His father, Stu Martin, accompanied some | | | | of jazz's great talents, including Herbie Hancock, Charlies | | | | Mingus, Quincy Jones, and John McLaughlin. But the | | | | Brussels-born/Boston-bred offspring quickly began to make a name | | | | for himself, culminating in his band's newest record, U4RIA. | | | | | | | | Boston jazz fans might know Martin through his work in either the | | | | Ed Jones Quartet or the Ray Brown Quartet. Regardless, the fact | | | | is, he's been playing with Boston's most respected jazz | | | | musicians-- including Andre Ward, Andre Hayward, Bronson Arroyo, | | | | PJ Adamson, Valerie Stevens, Frank Wilkins, Herman Johnson, Bill | | | | Lowe, and more--since the mid-'90s. | | | | | | | | In recent years, Zeke was written about in Drum! magazine and by | | | | acclaimed writer Scott Yanow in LA Jazz Scene. Zeke has also | | | | received endorsements with Creation drums, Evans drumheads, Murat | | | | Diril cymbals, and Vic Firth sticks. | | | | | | | | The Zeke Martin Project's third full-length outing, U4RIA | | | | includes standards mainly, but it's Martin's propensity for fresh | | | | arrangements that turns heads. As a drummer with a diverse | | | | background, including rock, fusion, funk, and traditional jazz, | | | | Martin understands the pivotal role a great drummer can play in a | | | | combo, and carefully weaves percussive styles of various colors | | | | throughout U4RIA. The result is sizzling spectrum of R&B, funk, | | | | soul, jazz and even a little pop. | | | | | | | | In order to weave such a tapestry, Martin had to unleash his | | | | band. Saxman Sean Berry blows tasty lines throughout the record, | | | | but especially on the opening epic, ôFreedom Jazz Dance,ö and a | | | | hot rendition of Mongo Santamaria's ôAfro Blue.ö | | | | | | | | Keyboardist Yusaku Yoshimura also asserts himself all across | | | | U4RIA, spotlighted effectively on an ambient take on Coltrane's | | | | ôNaimaö and Stanley Turrentine's tangy öSugar.ö Bassist Rozhan | | | | Razman makes good use of his rhythm stick on every track here, | | | | boasting a jazzy, funky, spicy style that bolsters the bedrock of | | | | all the material, especially the closing ôTeen Town,ö a | | | | composition written, appropriately, by bassist Jaco Pastorius. | | | | | | | | Recorded at Bluetone Studio in Somerville, U4RIA boasts beastly | | | | tone and just enough sparkle to illuminate the exceptional | | | | arrangements and polished musicianship. Zeke Martin may have | | | | royal bloodlines in jazz, and he certainly respects the sounds of | | | | jazz's past, but he and ZMP are intent on moving music forward to | | | | places it rarely goes, on grooves you rarely hear. | | | | | | | | Tracklisting: | | | | | | | | 01.
