“Commercial Music is the debut album from Chicago’s EX IBEX, an audacious new quintet of seasoned improvisers taking
inspiration from the city’s storied creative music scene.
Clocking in at 52 minutes, the album presents a balanced offering of material from a studio session and a live performance to create a cohesive, unified, and bold statement.
The musicians approach their canvas with a confoundingly wide palette of sonic elements, from knotty slabs of art-punk and prickly avant-prog to gorgeous expanses of ambient electronic and spiritual jazz. And funk.
RIYL : AACM/Art Ensemble of Chicago, `70s era Miles Davis, Ornette Coleman, Captain Beefheart, King Crimson, Fugazi.”
