Cobblestone Jazz is a Canadian improvised electronic music unit from Vancouver, consisting of Mathew Jonson, Tyger Dhula, and Danuel Tate. This is an important work that contains live/session recordings from 2001, which is their origin. The highlight is A1, which takes Pharoah Sanders' "The Creator Has A Master Plan" as its theme and translates the exhilaration of spiritual jazz into analog synthesizers and raw machine grooves. Their unique methodology of fusing jazzy improvisation with minimal/tech house in real-time is already clearly etched here. "Rumors," "Wishes," and "The Goods" also feature the excellent organic polyrhythms and fluctuations that would later characterize Cobblestone Jazz. This masterpiece EP, which fundamentally connects jazz and electronic music, cannot be described solely within the framework of 2000s minimal.
