shiny metal objectsThe Elec Tet featuring guitarist Oz Noy
"Shiny Metal Objects"
"A gorgeous record that blends the tradition of jazz and diversity of fusion with great tunes and enviable musicianship". - Oscar Jordan, Vintage Guitar Magazine

"The group does not disappoint as it incisively explores a fresh and diverse series of tunes."
 

Shiny Metal Objects is the culmination of nearly two years of work. Originally conceived as a 70's fusion "tribute" band. I formed The ElecTet as an outlet to perform the classic jazz-fusion material I had known and loved as a young musician.

With core members Greg SperoJames Davis and Alex Beltran actively contributing original repertoire, the band slowly evolved from its throwback roots into a testing ground for new compositions.

During the summer of 2012 I was living in Brooklyn and had the opportunity to meet bassist Daniel Ori. Daniel had recently released his album "Emuna" on the Blujazz label and I was captivated by the use of middle eastern rhythms and melodies in his music. At the same time. I had been pursuing Oz Noy as a guest artist for this project. Oz had done some wonderful work with Daniel in the past and with their commitment secured. I began to slowly assemble the puzzle that has resulted in the music you are about to hear. Enjoy.
