"This instrumental set is dramatic and intriguing. It has quite a wide range of sounds from jazz oriented to more pure prog and even some other things. Whatever you label this, it's effective."

about

Fuse: a 2020 Na Hoku Hanohano finalist (Hawai'i Academy of Recording Arts).

Five years in the making, this progressive rock tour de force shows off Magstadt's compositional skills and his love for the crash of different instruments in a rock setting. Combining tight grooves with fluid top lines, and often supported by a 4-piece horn section, this record delivers on its promise to be in your face.

Here's an interesting view from above, of drum set master Brian McRae kicking out the groove on the first demo version of track 1 "Blue Sunrise", from the album Fuse - enjoy!
