This category undoubtedly comprises the album on which DarTzeel's Hervé Delétraz and Jean-Pascal Panchard had a hand as executive producers: Jerome Sabbagh's album Heart, on which the French tenor saxophonist, who lives in the U.S., recorded several of his own compositions and a number of standards with bassist Joe Martin and the then 79-year-old drumming legend Al Foster. The LP was recorded entirely analogue without overdubs on a two-track machine and mastered by Bernie Grundman, who also cut the lacquer foil – a production completely devoted to sound. And the FIVE SX lets you hear it: the instruments are staged very closely placed and incredibly detailed. In the saxophone solo intro to “Right the First Time,” you can also hear the reverberation of the instrument in the rather large recording room. The eight songs are played at a rather moderate tempo. The absence of power play and the extremely natural-sounding recording make Heart the ideal soundtrack for times of dreaming and relaxing. Sonically, the Stenheims seem to vanish completely here. And that's a good thing.
