Composer and
multiinstrumentalist Konstantin Klashtorni is one of
the most productive musicians of the smooth jazz genre.
Beside his solo albums and the serials Kool&Klean he
also released the Chillaxing Jazz KolleKtion Groove Jazz
N Chill. In 2015 the fourth album of this collection was
published.
The special feature of all his albums is, Konstantin
composes all his pieces and
performs all musical instruments
and that in a breathtaking perfection. A Leonardo da
Vinci of music.
Deeply influenced by Paul Hardcastle he is a
representative of this digestible mixture of smooth
jazz, electronica and chill out. The assessment of
critics is exceedingly benevolent. His numerous
releases underscores the
popularity of his music.
Dreamcatcher allures with ambient synth sound
enriched with a great variety of other instruments.
Sometimes you meet a melody shining with a breathtaking
beauty. Whispers has that special something.
Eternal synth sounds and an emotional sax in an
unbeatable combination.
Synth guitar, strings and keys softly melt to Drops
In The Ocean. Beyond Me revels in synth
sounds of the lovely nature. Stylistically the music of
Dancing Fantasy is comparable. What A Wonderful
World is not a cover of Louis Armstrong's hit, but
equally spreads joy and happiness.
The Key Of Sea opens the world to the great
ocean filled with wonderful melodies. Take some time for
reverie with Fill Me Up. Konstantin's motto
"don't dream your life, live your dream" helps him to
keep looking ahead with a positive mindset, to deal with
setbacks and to stay motivated. Once Upon A Dream
delivers the musical background.
Make It Rain stays safely in this dreamy stuff.
Even Illumination does not release you from
this musical ensnarement.
Groove Jazz N Chill #4 is a musical alternative
to Paul Hardcastle's Jazzmasters series. Amazing how
many musical ideas originate from the pen of one single
artist. We might expect more astounding bits and pieces
in near future.
