Limited golden vinyl edition of Shake Stew’s 2017 debut album. Style was yesterday, transformation and genre diversity are today! With his well-rehearsed formation Shake Stew, consisting of two basses, two drummers and a noble wind trio, the Austrian double bass player Lukas Kranzelbinder offers an intergalactic road movie for the ears and "good vibrations" for the soul. On the debut album "The Golden Fang" shamanic sound streaks waft and colossal beat architectures bang, while energy-drunk brass voices drive serpentine lines. Moods are smartly subjected to a slow metamorphosis, solos elegantly wrapped in an atmospherically dense soundscape. This sometimes reminds one of a marching band, then again of freetonal festivals, with Oriental scale excursions and bluesy hints flashing up in color in between. "With this new generation, Austrian jazz stands on a sound footing," found the "Oberösterreichische Nachrichten".
