Cassette + Digital Album
Translucent is an instrumental project by Dion Brown aka Cool D, a seasoned beat-maker representing the South Side of Chicago. This album finds Brown experimenting with sound through a jazz based lens where his knowledge of and intimacy with the genre shines bright, as his arrangements span from swing era piano chops to syncopating later era fusion and smooth jazz selections. Always jazzy but never predictable, Translucent is a heady production that largely abandons formulaic boom-bap and invites the listener on a journey through the beautiful mind of a modern jazz-man.

Includes unlimited streaming of Translucent via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
