Music between minimal and jazz. It's a journey...
Ctraltu - derived from the American icons art series, which states that there are only 3 directions - straight-ahead or back-control - alto-ctraltu. Musically, this is transferable - avant-garde - retro or a niche on the edge. Ctraltu's acoustic post-jazz goes forward and celebrates the music from and for now. In the classic 8-track method, the analog instruments are recorded mostly first-takes, mixed and presented. The days of editing do not fit into the jazz context, so too many smooth productions have often pushed jazz into the sounding area for elevators and shopping malls. Ctraltu is edgier, but also softer and often reminiscent of film music for films that only the listener knows.
