HUMAN ELEMENT

2011 release. In the tradition of Weather Report and the Joe Zawinul Syndicate, two powerhouse pan-global bands that have greatly influenced generations of musicians around the world, Human Element is staking out a new corner of the musical map on its self-titled debut. Comprised of keyboardist Scott Kinsey (Tribal Tech), electric bassist Matthew Garrison (Zawinul Syndicate, John McLaughlin’s Heart of Things), percussionist-vocalist Arto Tuncboyaciyan (Al Di Meola’s World Sinfonia, Joe Zawinul) and drummer Gary Novak (Chick Corea’s Elektric Band), Human Element incorporates elements of fusion, funk, and Armenian folk tunes into a potent 21st century brew that defies easy categorization. Human Element travels from intense offerings like the 5/8 title track and “Bottom of the Mirror” to the Gnawan music influenced groover “Essouaria” and funky jams like “Crazy Girl” and “Shake It.” Tuncboyaciyan’s “Hi Lao” (featuring a cameo by guitar hero John McLaughlin) injects a Middle Eastern flavor into the preceedings while Garrison’s two tracks, “Izzy and Cut,” showcase his remarkable facility on the bass. Scott Kinsey, synthesizers, piano, vocoder; Arto Tuncboyaciyan, percussion, vocals; Matthew Garrison, bass & Gary Novak, drums. Please note: Japanese import "human Element" contains a bonus track entitled "February 14th", available on a special order basis only, please inquire if interested.
