about

With 4 previous albums under his name, Romanian saxophonist Catalin Milea is one of the most creative in the East European scene, with a deep and varied book of original compositions. In a revolving world where things are moving at a fast rate, his new album TETRISMATIC is the reflection of our times. Only a few years have elapsed since the release of his last project, 2017’s Evocative, a duo album with a very different mood and sound. TETRISMATIC is an album of dynamic and engaging energy, that puts the focus on structures that are moving very fast, like the tetris game bricks, an engaging work as a composer and arranger.

A saxophonist with a deep and flavoured sound reminding of Joshua Redman or Joe Lovano, and a supple sense of swing, Milea leads a quartet featuring some of the finest musicians on the Romanian jazz scene.

The music of TETRISMATIC brings in a new style, both acustic și electronic, vintage and modern at the same time, without limitations, straight forward with elements of jazz rock. It can be compared with a cinematic soundtrack, with fast dynamic and mood changes, unespected and surprising as a game. The music is composed as recuring moving tetris pieces, so that you are floating in a sonic journey where the direction
can change at any moment.
