Nathan Haines - The Soft Chaos

The Soft Chaos captures the essence of music in the moment, the interaction of three musicians within improvisation. It embodies the true spirit of jazz: music created spontaneously, yet within the boundaries of an art form that has influenced modern music for nearly a century.

A collaborative, improvisational and free-form trio project led, produced and mixed by Nathan Haines with Joe Kaptein and Elijah Whyte, the album was recorded in just one day at Auckland Lab Studios. It showcases live, in-the-moment musicianship with a vintage 1970s experimental jazz-rock feel and a modern jazz-house aesthetic.
