I was fortunate enough to catch the PS Quartet at the Wodonga Jazz Basement a last month. As good as they are to listen to on CD, they are absolutely mesmorising to watch live. Pascal is amazing on the vibraphone, the base and piano player are also excellent, however, the magic on the night was with Jenz, the drummer. His ability to use every surface of his drum kit, plus other bits and pieces, was inspiring to say the least. My wife and I ended up buying both the CDs they had for sale and were lucky enough to get them both autographed by the entire quartet. If you ever get the opportunity go and see them live. These guys are a must see.
It isn't easy to have one's 'own sound' on any instrument today - let alone vibes - yet this man is the most innovative vibes player I've heard since the superb Bobby Hutcherson. (Love Gary Burton too.) The Jazzbear advises you to claw through this and enjoy!
