Jugaad, the latest album from the Scottish jazz-fusion band FatSuit, is a captivating and dynamic offering that showcases the band's impressive musicianship and creativity.
From the opening track "Jugaad," the band sets the tone with a driving rhythm and intricate melodies that immediately grab the listener's attention. Throughout the album, FatSuit explores a range of styles and influences, from the funky grooves of "The Shunter" to the soaring, cinematic soundscapes of "The Last Stand."
One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Village," which features a beautiful, melancholic melody that builds to a powerful crescendo. The band's use of brass and strings on this track is especially effective, adding depth and texture to the already rich instrumentation.
