Omschrijving

Jérôme Beaulieu, Philippe Leduc and William Côté created the band in 2011 shortly after their studies at University of Montreal. 
Since then, they have been using audio sampling and a variety of percussions, effects and prepared instruments 
to broaden the usual jazz trio's set of textures and moods. Modern jazz with a twist, based on a cohesive group effort rather than 
on personal virtuosity; that's what the members of Misc (formerly known as Trio Jérôme Beaulieu) are going for.

The album is the result of a true collaboration between the three musicians. In a more elaborate way than the two previous albums, 
they each contributed to the rythmic, melodic and harmonic arrangements to create an unique sound that sets this trio apart from the rest:

Pianist Jérôme Beaulieu, lover of the great outdoors, contributes majestic melodies to the project. Drummer William Côté adds a subtle, 
spirited rhythm while double bassist Philippe Leduc brings out the playfulness of each track. 

Misc holds a place in the Jazz scene because of the vital role that improvisation occupies in their music. However, 
this does not stop them from drawing on influences from pop and rock genres. This clearly mark a step towards a 
new generation of jazz musicians for whom catchy, strong melodies and rhythms expand musical boundaries, 
while rooting the music in the present. Therefore this album, much like the live performances of Misc, 
strives to create an energetic and active dialogue between the listener and the music. (http://www.bonsound.com)

"They've formed an excellent ensemble, where each instrument has its own unique role, showing different techniques, 
capabilities and own personality. Strong expressive melodies, great jazz arrangements, creative percussion, 
impressive lyrical lines of double-bass, nice improvisations, the variety of rhythms. 
It's easy to listen to this album several times in a row." (Olga Kivius on http://www.bandcamp.com)
