about

Steve’s debut solo EP, Off/On, is an exploration of the space between his onstage roar and his obsessive, layered digital composing work. The blend of jazz, electronic and hip-hop explores the computer as instrument, pushing the limits of what it means to be a jazz musician. Imagine this: Kamasi Washington and Snarky Puppy get drunk at a party and record some funky jams together. Then some mad genius comes along and chops those jams up into little pieces and reimagines them into something new — a blend of raw, live passion and digital precision, told across immense soundscapes and simple melodies. That’s Off/On. Its first track, “Forward,” feels at times like a pack of saxophones debating which is the funkiest. “Coniferous” is a study of water-droplet-like syncopation in percussion and bass. In “Philly Sophia,” Steve provides a study of sauntering with a jangling walking beat that drops into a cityscape of punchy melodic riffs. “Wanna Dance” is a simmering R&B invitation, topped by an inviting vocal track. And in “Night Song,” a chorus of saxes flows from one wall of sound to the next, cresting and falling in nocturnal rhythm. Taken all together, Off/On is both a journey and an invitation to bob your head and feel good about life.
