On his fourth album of eclectic, original music, radio DJ turned technology journalist Dan Ackerman explores Brazilian jazz, retro funk, and instrumental indie rock.
The bossa-nova-tinged 'The Futurist' is the fourth album from former radio DJ turned journalist Dan Ackerman. Inspired by his love for classic Brazilian jazz, from Antonio Carlos Jobim to Sergio Mendes, the album lays bossa beats over indie jazz rock, with plenty of Rhodes organs and slinky basslines.
Like his previous albums, 'The Futurist' is a mix of instrumental and vocal tracks, combining influences from jazz, funk, and soul, with lo-fi singer-songwriter rock, creating an eclectic mix of songs that recall artists from Steely Dan to Beck.
'The Futurist' is available now on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, RDIO, and other online music stores. CDs are available exclusively through Amazon.
