Space Discovery: ARI JOSHUA – “Tagine”
In this Space Discovery, we met phenomenal artist Ari Joshua and his tune “Tagine”, which is a sonic trip that pulls you right into a dark and jazzy world where groove meets grit! This track is a prime example of what happens when raw talent and fearless creativity collide. Featuring Joe Russo, who lays down tight, intricate rhythms, and Marco Benevento’s organ weaving in and out like a dream, Joshua’s guitar takes the lead, driving the whole piece with an effortless cool that feels haunting and edgy.
The vibe on “Tagine” is all about mood: dark, smoky, and just a little bit trippy. Joshua’s guitar work dances between silky smooth and sharp-edged, creating a tension that pulls you deeper with every note. Benevento’s organ adds layers of atmosphere, building that rich, textured, and slightly surreal mood. Russo’s drumming is the heartbeat of the track, steady and complex, giving the whole thing a pulse that’s impossible to ignore.
What really stands out in this cray track, is the chemistry between these three musicians. You can hear them feeding off each other, pushing their limits and exploring new territory. The track has this hypnotic flow, like a late-night jam session that just kept getting better the longer it went on. It’s a loose and tight sound, full of spontaneous energy but anchored by solid musicianship.
This isn’t just a jazz track; it’s a full-on experience. “Tagine” brings some heat with a mix of psychedelic vibes and deep grooves that hit you right in the soul. It’s the kind of track that makes you want to close your eyes, lean back, and just let the music take over. Ari Joshua, Russo, and Benevento have cooked up something special here: this is pure, uncut music gem for anyone who’s down with exploring the outer edges of jazz!
