An extremely prolific artist who has gifted the genre with incredible 20+ singles over the past few years, keyboardist/composer Rei Narita is renowned as Asia’s foremost pioneer of Smooth Jazz. He is also a true sound painter, creating different moods on each track based on his varying grooves, lead and harmonic instrumentation and lush synth atmospheres. Narita’s latest gem – and first of 2025 - “Engine Telegraph” is a warm, breezy and caressing tune featuring multi-genre, world-class drummer Omar Hakim and veteran woodwind player Nelson Rangell taking a soaring lead on his trademark flute over the adventurous pianist’s beautiful piano flourishes and dreamy ambience. This grand musical voyage is another wonderful collaboration with both Hakim and Rangell... Perfectly suited for Narita's limitless imagination.
