Dejan Terzić and Axiom - Silent Dancer (2021) [Hi-Res]

Silent Dancer is the second CAM JAZZ album by award-winning Serbian-born drummer Dejan Terzić and his regular band Axiom. As on its predecessor Prometheus Terzic blends American jazz with European folk forms and other modern sounds, producing a sound that defies easy comparison but claims the adjective... Axiomatic.

Joining Terzić again are saxophonist Chris Speed, one of the most admired instrumentalists on the present scene, pianist Bojan Zulfikarpašić, who is himself a seasoned leader, and bassist Matt Penman, whose work goes beyond dependability. Together they realise Terzić’s distinctive compositions in a style that is unique and instantly recognisable.

Drummer-led groups are sometimes all about the drums. This one is all about the music. Silent Dancer will transport you from the very opening track. (Brian Morton)

Under the supervision of music producer Ermanno Basso, Silent Dancer was recorded and mixed in March 2020 by Stefano Amerio at Artesuono Recording Studio in Cavalicco (UD), Italy, and mastered by Danilo Rossi.
