PLACES

JAZZCOMPUTER.ORG is the artist moniker used by French composer and multi-instrumentalist Yves Potin. Since 2006 he has issued a steady stream of full length records where his aim is to produce material incorporating details from progressive rock and jazz with the floating dynamics of ambient instrumental music. "Places" from 2011 is his most recent studio outing.

With "Places", composer and multi-instrumentalist Yves Potin has crafted a pleasant and detailed ambient electronic album. At his best when incorporating multiple textures and motifs, and in particular when he does live up to his artist moniker Jazzcomputer, but by and large, this is a CD that will have its main audience amongst those who enjoy smooth, electronic ambient material, in particular if they don't mind the occasional jazz-tinged detail added to the proceedings.
