Stéphane Mercier presents Calling Colescott (Live), a genre-defying track that seamlessly blends chill pop, jazz, and ambient influences. Designed for any playlist, soundtrack, or moment in need of feel-good music, this performance captures an atmosphere of effortless groove and sonic exploration.
Calling Colescott opens with a dry yet silky drum introduction, where Beckett’s mallets and timbreless snare drum set the stage for a mesmerizing soundscape. As the arrangement unfolds, ethereal piano, a deep, heady bass, and a saxophone bathed in modulated echo transport listeners into a Talk Talk-inspired dreamscape. The live setting adds an extra layer of magic, with the audience audibly captivated as the band takes flight.
Following this hypnotic piece is an adaptation of a John Coltrane composition, paying homage to one of jazz’s greatest innovators while maintaining Mercier’s distinct atmospheric touch.
