Dominic J Marshall, an Amsterdam-based, Scottish-born composer and versatile multi-keyboardist, has gone down well with the hip dance-jazz underground scene at Jazz refreshed but he has also factored Bill Evans and Bud Powell into his post-hiphop approach to contemporary jazz as featured on impressive previous albums Spirit Speech (2014) and Triolithic (2016). On the new vinyl only release Nomad's Land, Marshall takes the vocal mic. He's on a spaced-out rap/neo-soul tip but one that's as English as The Streets, Robert Wyatt and Kevin Ayers. If you're only here for the jazz, don't let that put you off. Marshall speak-raps and sings with some sophistication about girl trouble with an instrumental backing that's marked by inventive, spontaneous-sounding musicianship rather than a series of producer-led loops. Marshall's hook-y yet imaginative multi-keyboards, especially on wax, sounds perfect – a cross between Glasper and Zawinul at times – in a sonically-invigorating merger of warping analogue splendour, atmospheric sampling and penetrating broken beats.
