NYC Based Band ‘Room 31’ Releases Their Debut Album ‘Crazy Town’, an Exploration of Sonic Possibilities That Weaves Elements of Avant-Rock, Jazz, Beats and Experimental Sounds with Ambient Textures
The story of Room 31 began when drummer Marlon Patton and saxophonist Greg Sinibaldi first crossed paths while playing in the band Kenosha Kid back in 2008. The two formed an instant connection, and fate brought them together again when they both relocated to New York City in 2019. Sharing a practice space, they embarked on a musical journey that would lead to the birth of Room 31. Inspired by their surroundings and the room number of their current practice space, they chose the name that would forever encapsulate their creative endeavors.
Greg Sinibaldi says: "I feel like our experiences of moving to NYC, trying to network, meet people, hustle, make a music career, etc. is reflected in this music in some ways. I think the title Crazy Town fits based off of these shared experiences.
I painted the cover during the time we were working on the record. I often make visual art as part of my musical process. Painting helps remind me how free I want to feel when I'm making music".
Room 31's debut album ‘Crazy Town’ is an exploration of sonic possibilities, weaving elements of avant-rock, jazz, beats, experimental sounds, and ambient textures. While the albums six tracks sound like compositions they are actually all improvised during the recording sessions, and afterwards brought back to the cutting floor of the studio where they are edited and expanded, to convey the band's unique sonic footprint.
Greg Sinibaldi plays NuRAD and baritone saxophone on the album with Marlon Patton contributing drums and bass. Both musicians play electronics.
Crazy Town will be available on CD, and for download on May 24, 2024.
A brave experimental record from the Cecilia Lopez & Ingrid Laubrock running darting sax lines through dense electronics & processing. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 10, 2023
Described as a series of “self-exorcisms,” “Ego De Espinhos” is a brain-melting foray into experimental electronics. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 4, 2019
