 JOSEPH PATRICK MOORE – DRUM & BASS SOCIETY VOLUME 1: Drum & Bass Society is the fourth release from bassist, multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer Joseph Patrick Moore (JPM). Joseph’s influences vary from jazz greats Miles Davis and Coltrain to modern rockers such as The Police. JPM has worked with many musicians and he has played on over forty recordings from other artists. Drum & Bass Society is a fifteen-track collection that includes seven originals, five innovative covers and three quick interludes. The CD is an eclectic mix ranging from jazz, rock, world and so much more. Many talented players contribute to this dynamic collection. ‘Ghost Town’ features haunting sounds and vocals with diverse instrumentation. Funky beats blend with the mandolin and pedal steel to create an evocative modern jazz song. ‘Groove Messenger’ is an up-tempo jazz number that features dynamic drumming including the congas and an udu drum. Joseph crafts smooth cool beats on an acoustic bass as a subtle mandolin melds with a trumpet, a tenor sax and a soprano saxophone. This song has a lot of flavor and first-rate musicianship. JPM’s interpretation of The Fixx‘s ‘One Thing Leads to Another‘ is acoustic based. The highlight of the song is the flute leads and other solos giving this rock hit a more improvisational direction. JPM has compiled an eclectic mix of exotic mostly instrumental songs that are masterful!
