Mark Guiliana is a drummer renowned for his chameleon-like ways with pulse - whether he's leading his acoustic jazz quartet, playing in a duo with Brad Mehldau or providing the back beat behind David Bowie's final album, Blackstar. Now, Guiliana is in another mutation mode, shifting his focus from acoustic jazz sounds to explore an exciting realm of electro-jazz.
In this concert film from Rough Trade in New York City, the multi-faceted artist celebrates the release of Beat Music! Beat Music! Beat Music! (Motéma Music). The show, which kicked off a European tour, featured the psychedelic musical interplay of BIGYUKI and Nick Semrad on synthesizers, Chris Morrissey on electric bass, and Guiliana on electronics and drums. This special performance features long-time co-Bowie conspirator Jason Lindner on the melodica.
Guiliana started Beat Music in his basement in New Jersey a decade ago, as an underground, community-oriented musical experiment. The story behind this fascinating music comes alive in a new podcast episode of WBGO's The Checkout: bit.ly/2IOW6Il
