LIST PICK

RUSLAN SIROTA, GREG SPERO, MONONEON, RONALD BRUNER JR SAY IT LOUD (TINY ROOM SESSION)

A group of very talented musicians have come together to form an exceptional musical hybrid. The group is made up of pianist and composer Ruslan Sirota who's collaborated with the like of Thundercat and Kamasi Washington, Chicago pianist and composer Greg Spero, drummer Ronald Bruner Jr (who's also Thundercat's eldest brother), and bass wizard Mononeon. Their new track 'Say it Loud (Tiny Rooms Session)' features keys that delicately interweave with piano and airy synth. The drumming is phenomenally skilled and incredibly tactile, moving from skippy hi-hat patterns, to expressive and delicate symbol playing. Bass from Mononeon bridges the gap between the drums and melodic keys and piano. 'Say it Loud (Tiny Room Sessions)' is a sublime and full-bodied contemporary composition that showcases the musician's skillsets with modesty, poise and expression. -Ellie Rose-Davies
