Peter Evans is the rare virtuoso player who's willing to take real musical
risks. The New York trumpeter boasts deadly classical and jazz chops – in 2014,
as part of the group Mostly Other People Do the Killing, he participated in a
freakishly painstaking full-album cover of Miles Davis' Kind of Blue. However
in his own projects, he prizes batshit maximalism as much as technical
dazzlement. Genesis is the latest document of his electroacoustic quintet, a
band that – thanks in large part to the real-time electronic processing of Sam
Pluta – can sound like a bebop combo blasted by a sci-fi scrambler ray. On the
four-part "Genesis/Schismogenesis," one of two lengthy suites that make up the
majority of this 90-minute-plus behemoth, lockstep prog-jazz intermingles with
wild textural tangents, such as in the third movement, when pianist Ron
Stabinsky's solo turns into a burbling robot chorus. During Genesis' many
similarly surreal moments, Evans and his crew make musical implosion sound
positively ecstatic.
