Flow State - Total Blue
Welcome back to Flow State, your daily instrumental music newsletter. Paid subscribers get a daily Spotify playlist, unlock the weekly Tuesday podcast, and keep this newsletter alive. If you enjoy Flow State, consider upgrading to paid (which also removes this preamble): Good morning. Today we’re listening to Total Blue, a jazz trio based in Los Angeles. The group is made up of Nicky Benedek, Alex Talan, and Anthony Calonico. We heard about their new self-titled record via Philip Sherburne’s recent review of it in Pitchfork. Released on Music from Memory, Total Blue consists of chilled-out, loosely structured jazz reminiscent of Wally Badarou, Bill Frisell, even Vangelis. “Everything, from the flanged guitar to the LinnDrum thwacks, seems designed to evoke a specific era and spirit of digitally abetted jazz production,” observed Sherburne. Second we’re playing the Coolwater EP from 2020, which despite its name features all three Total Blue members. Total Blue - Total Blue (50m, no vocals) Coolwater - Coolwater (20m, no vocals) Have a really nice Thursday.
