Product Description
He sauntered onto the scene from somewhere in the Midwest, an international ne'er-do-well maintaining a low profile as he filled listening rooms with Brazilian flavored beats and leftfield sound pastiches. A persona became a gag, then a myth. While the masses partied, he played…constructed. And as the rules changed and the music changed, the magic left and came back as magic often does. Such is the way of electronic alchemists and new beat adventurers, always searching for the New Jazz Science.

Pimp Daddy Nash, a.k.a. Jon Curtis, is the scientist in question. The persona came about during the initial organization of the Orlando-based Eighth Dimension collective - also home to Q-Burns Abstract Message and DJ BMF. But while Q-Burns Abstract Message signed on with Astralwerks and DJ BMF ensures hip-hop don't stop as his ferociously popular Phat N' Jazzy party sprints toward a decade, Pimp Daddy Nash rode out the Nineties with a single-minded pursuit of electronic excellence. Fitting right in alongside the big beats, downtempos, noir-ish soundscapes and spy-themed samples that infiltrated electronic music in the mid-90s, Pimp Daddy Nash found himself recording for Mephisto Records, Om Records, Delancey Street, and FFRR for the duration of the century.

Fast forward to 2004 - the musical landscape is vastly different then when the Pimp first came around and introduced the bossanova numbers racket. Electronic music permeates culture to the core, unprecedented, unstoppable. Unstoppable like the endless mine of musical ideas from the mind of Pimp Daddy Nash. Like the New Jazz Science about to be unleashed on an unsuspecting public.

Holzman's brave new album!!!!.......2006-06-18

There are thre reasons to get this disc:

Maria Rain (Awsome song, almost like Bill Cobhams Heather on Crosswinds album)

Super Hero (Holzman comes in soo sick at the end of the song. What a funked up song!!!

Kryptonite? (Holzman uses space so well on this album and this song)

Just buy it!.......2006-03-25

If you're a fan of fusion, this is a "must own" CD. I must admit to having just discovered Adam Holzman. I have now corrected my oversight by purchasing every CD he has ever issued. I have the same sentiment for his other works, just buy it!

THIS CD ROCKS!.......2005-12-13

This is the best album released this year. Period! When I first put on this CD, I played the INCREDIBLE opening track "Superhero" 10 times in a row. It was so deep, funky and nasty. I was worried to play the rest of the CD because I thought, "Nothing can possibly top this."

Well, I was wrong. Every single one of the 11 cuts on Jazz Rocket Science kicks butt!

Adam Holzman is the most innovative musician and composer on the scene today, and his brand new album Jazz Rocket Science is his best release to date (which is saying a lot). Hardly surprising, given the fact that Holzman was personally mentored by the world-famous jazz legend Miles Davis for more than 10 years.

As you may recall, jazz became modern, hard-hitting, funky and electric with Miles back in the late `60's. With "jazz fusion," the music began an evolutionary journey that fused rock, R&B and jazz into one powerful experience where anything could happen.

Then smooth jazz came along and contemporary jazz got watered down into sweet-as-a-toothache music for people in a dentist's office. BUT THIS CD HAS CHANGED THAT.

On Jazz Rocket Science, Holzman pays honor to Davis, his personal mentor. The music is bold and powerful. It delivers full-throttle funk, soulful melodies, gorgeous chords and brilliant improvisation. This is contemporary jazz the way it was meant to be: fresh, bold, exciting, aggressive, experimental and brilliant!

Jazz Rocket Science isn't just jazz. It's a creative and fresh take on countless music styles. It combines urban, funk, rock, hip-hop and jazz with cool lush keyboard riffs, deep throbbing basses, funky guitars, thumping drums and cool melodies. If your mouth isn't watering yet, it will be when you take a listen to the seriously hip tunes on this album!

You will not find any bland tracks on this CD. Every song is first rate. If Jazz Rocket Science doesn't wake you up, and make you a believer that there STILL IS GOOD MUSIC OUT THERE, then you may as well check yourself into the local retirement home right now.

HIGHLY RECOMMENEDED!!!

Nagel Heyer Records #2060
October 2005

Review:
"Adam Holzman is Jazz Rock's best kept secret" (and hopefully that will change). The Funk Guru of Jazz Rock has once again, since making one of Jazz Rock's all time best recordings "In a Loud Way" (1993) released another masterpiece that belongs in the Jazz Rock Hall of Fame.

While Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Jan Hammer, and Joe Zawinul are the traditional Jazz Rock keyboard household names, Adam truly should be too. Since gaining international exposure when he joined the Miles Davis Band in 1985, Adam has consistently been the voice of the "real" Jazz Rock Funk, speaking in an intelligent, articulate, and tasteful musical language.

For the lucky few that know of his work and followed his career, Adam has quietly released some of the best music ever made . Unlike Herbie, Chick, and Joe, Adam never had the luxury of a big record label behind him and consequently has been mired on the obscurity of the genre itself. Shame on the music business!

Another way to say that is that Adam has been true to himself and the music, an attribute all too rare these days. Adam has never fallen into the typical pitfalls of so many other Jazz Rock musicians that ultimately helped diminish the significance of Jazz Rock over the years. His music can't be categorized as "traditional", "too many notes", "technically skillful but lacking feeling", "yeah, he's a great musician, but so what, it doesn't do anything for me", "ok, he's got a lot of talent, but the compositions are boring", and all the rest of the negative Jazz Rock clichs.

Adam's music by contrast, is extremely accessible without being blaring, avante garde, or smooth (the "s" word in Jazz Rock). Adam has listened and learned from the best musicians in the world to create his own unique style that, while unfortunately has not been prolific, is nonetheless of extreme significance and he should be recognized for what he is - one of the greatest musicians of our times. (That's not too overboard, is it? It shouldn't be - it's the truth!).

Jazz Rocket Science is a seminole recording in every way and brings all of Adam's skills as a composer, bandleader, and keyboard player into extreme focus. There isn't a single moment of music on this recording that is disappointing or less than exceptional. In fact, I find it nearly impossible to find a single flaw in any regard, except maybe the lack of major exposure it deserves. I like to describe Adam's music as the sound of Tower of Power arranged by Miles Davis, and I can't think of anyone else that comes close to that description. Certainly a compliment of the highest degree.

Jazz Rocket Science has it all. Fantastic musicianship that has the funk and the groove going in high gear, yet totally accessible. The compositions still amaze me, after dozens of listenings. Deep rich melodies, tasteful and stylish musical structure, highly skilled and perfectly played throughout by all the musicians on board. Every note is significant and bears up under close listening. There's nothing wasted, no overplaying, and seems to be perfectly carved out of the harmony of the universe. I get the distinct feeling that this music is so incredible in its simplistic complexity that it reminds me of how the great artist Michelangelo responded when asked how he made his famous carving of David: "I just chipped away what didn't belong". Adam is a master at chipping away what doesn't belong.

In summary, this new release by Adam Holzman is nothing short of perfect. By comparison to most of the Jazz Rock I've heard in the last five years, "This is better"!!!

NEW JAZZ SCIENCE INDEED!!!.......2004-05-08

I stumbled across this guy in the record store and decided to give him a try. I normally go for the "new kids on the block"--opposed to what's popular or mainstream. HEY! That's where you'll find the best music! Pimp Daddy Nash's New Jazz Science is an incredible collection of acid jazz meets funk grooves! Some tracks like "'Cause Everybody's Coming Undone" and "It's A Wonderful Life" are a little too much like Prince, but for the most part this guy is a musical genius, much like the man he tries to emulate. Pimp Daddy Nash takes lounge, acid jazz, house, rock and funk and melds it all into a wonderful landscape of sounds meant to be played by all you hip cats...Highly Recommended!

Made Especially For You By Domestic Science Club.......2006-02-05

Too bad there are no more Domestic Science Club albums being made. This is a great record. You'll be toe-tapping and smiling to the wonderful harmonies and music. "Kayaking" will have you laughing out loud.

Wholesome & Melodic.......2005-10-31

The Domestic Science Club (DSC) is a refreshing group putting vocals and harmony back where they belong - not competing with the instruments which are otherwise orchestrated to drown out the voices and lyrics of marginally talented artists.

The DSC style is soothing and romantic, sometimes with a bit of country swing, but I travel back in time whenever I listen. Their music holds close old values of love and romance while cherishing the simple joys of life, family, and homemaking.

Their style may not be highly marketed as other singers, but the DSC fills a gap in the music industry that has been wholly ignored - making me long for an era of innocence and simplicity. It would do well to publish more music as melodic and wholesome as this group.

Better than the Dixie Chicks ?!.......2003-12-19

To tell the truth, I buy the Dixie Chicks CDs mainly because there are no new Domestic Science Club CDs. The two CDs out there are delightful, with tunes ranging from country/blue grass style to funny to romantic. The lyrics and harmonies are wonderful and very singable if you like to follow along while driving the car. I've had to buy multiple versions of both CDs because people keep taking my copies! This CD's only flaw is that it is shorter than the other.

Let me tell you first hand...........2003-06-27

This album is one of those that whenever you listen to it, it just makes you happy! The songs are fun and light and funny. Sara Hickman is an amazing songwriter with a wonderful sense of humor and a style that is all her own. If I had to pick a favorite song,I think it would be "Sweet Tooth"-only because that is the song that got me hooked on these girls. "Secrets of Love", "Peaches and Cream", and "Kayaking" will make you smile so be sure to listen to the lyrics. The combination of Patty Lege,Robin Macy, and Sara Hickman is so special. I can't believe they are still such a secret!
