{"product_id":"omer-govreen-all-things-equal","title":"Omer Govreen - Tous égaux","description":"\u003cp\u003eAll Things Equal is the second album from a quartet of European millennials who met at Amsterdam's most prestigious conservatory, and it sounds like a group discovering in real time how much they can trust each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheir debut album, Maya, released in 2018, brought enough attention to JMI that the label financed a trip to New York for the follow-up, recorded at Reservoir Studios in January 2024. This time, Omer Govreen establishes himself as the clear compositional voice of the group, writing everything and leading the improvisations, with Aleksander Sever's vibraphone, Floris Kappeyne's piano and Wouter Kuhne's drums building the kind of interplay which only comes from years of playing together rather than from a session assembled for the occasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe title track immediately sets the tone for the album, patient and conversational, with no one instrument rushing to dominate. Comfort lives up to its name with the warmest, most sedate part of the album, Narrowing narrows the band's focus into something more urgent and more exploratory, and Waiting for Wouter closes the album as a loving, laid-back nod to their own drummer, the kind of inside joke that only a band this close would bother to write.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeven pieces, a conservatory pedigree, and a real chemistry that no amount of technical training alone could simulate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vinylestore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67910336217165,"sku":"850061069252","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/9131\/7325\/files\/4419168-3380528.jpg?v=1794005703","url":"https:\/\/vinylestore.shop\/products\/omer-govreen-all-things-equal","provider":"Vinylestore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
