‘The Room’ is a collection of folkloric pieces from various regions around South America, as interpreted by Fabiano do Nascimento and Sam Gendel, on 7-string nylon guitar and soprano saxophone, respectively. Fabiano is a Rio de Janeiro-born, LA-based multi-string guitarist, composer and producer who has developed his own sound that is ever-expansive, sometimes called retro-futuristic Brazilian music, borrowing from the traditions of samba and choro while echoing elements of modern jazz, experimental and electronic. Californian saxophonist Sam Gendal - perhaps best-known for his thoughtful collaborations with Moses Sumney, Louis Cole and bassist Sam Wilkes - has long been honing slippery improvisations, pitch-bending his harmonies and sliding over rhythms.
