about

"...none of these frenetic tracks settles for long without flipping identity, echoes of Eastern folk and Indian classical poking through."

— Andy Cowan, MOJO ⋆⋆⋆⋆

"This perky debut from the London-based duo combines extreme precision with punkish attitude to create snottily syncopated sounds that are both spiked and danceable."

— The Wire


"But it also reflects radical DIY movements from punk through to fire-starting drum and bass that propel Strigalev’s hurtling, naïve, spiky, themes with their machine-gun staccato."

— Selwyn Harris, Jazzwise

"...the way Lefebvre and Murray run through variations on a groove that’s sometimes arty punk-funk and other times just punk reminds me of Battles, especially given the drum sound here, which often has a sharp alt-rock ring. Meanwhile, Strigalev’s sax is a staccato pulse, each note clearly defined with a twitchy, hypercaffeinated focus."

— Phil Freeman, Stereogum

" Their imaginative approach is front and centre on each track, letting listeners dream up their own visualisations. It’s an incredible listen from beginning to end, building a sound that’s both unique and familiar."

— Danielle Holian, Headstuff

——————————————

JZ Replacement is a dynamic new international project from saxophonist Zhenya Strigalev (Ambrose Akinmusire, Eric Harland) and drummer Jamie Murray (Sun Ra Arkestra, Native Dancer).

Frequent collaborators and quiet stalwarts of the London jazz scene, the duo has been racking up vast acclaim performing independently and alongside the finest, the genre has to offer. Having performed together in Jamie Murray’s solo project "Beat Replacement" just two years ago, they discovered a natural symbiosis and appreciation for free-flowing experimentation.

This inspired them to explore their individual playing styles and influences and work together to refine their collaboration into something more precise without compromising on the pliability that their recently found connection has afforded them.

Both Zhenya and Jamie have covered an enormous amount of sonic terrain in their own rights before the meeting, and the amalgamation of their most consummate ideas are now being combined to create something that is all at once organic, original, frenetic, and highly danceable. Whilst some easy comparisons to their more traditional sensibilities are easily made, their new album ‘Disrespectful’ draws on elements of Breakbeat, Eastern European folk, and free jazz, whilst also calling to mind a broad spectrum of influences from the likes of John Zorn to David Bowie to Zach Hill and Miles Davis.JZ Replacement’s serendipitous partnership has also inspired the duo to look further afield to develop and challenge their sound.

In this vein, the album was recorded with LA bass master, Tim Lefebvre (David Bowie, Wayne Krantz, Elvis Costello, Donny McCaslin, Mark Guiliana). Zhenya has already played and recorded with Tim on various projects, including many of their own gigs and their last release. Their new album ‘Disrespectful’ is an incredibly unique listen, building on a sound that has seen them fast become one of the key proponents of the scene, having already successfully performed at Love Supreme Festival, Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club, London Jazz Festival, Porto Jazz Festival, Rainy Days Festival, and Jazz Province Festival. They have also toured internationally across the UK, Germany, Austria, Spain, and Russia, and have further dates planned for 2020.
