South Korean pianist Eunhye Jeong believes that “after you travel far away from home, you get to know yourself more fully.” Her new album, End of Time Vol. 1, is an existential exploration along with her group of that self-discovery, imbued with the spirit of a specific moon bear Jeong has been particularly fascinated with. This adventurous animal named KM-53 was from the Taebaek Mountains and became known for running miles and miles to other mountains in other provinces in Korea.
Throughout the album’s three extended tracks, “Embark,” “The Latitudinal Bands,” and “The Elemental Life,” she interfaces with a celestial, linear elegance, veering from a sparse and eerie effect to an energized, complex composition. While the pieces are composed and directed by Jeong, the album also features Allison Burik (Alto Saxophone, Bass Clarinet), Max Ridley (Double Bass), Francisco Mela (Drums), and Mina Kim (Cello), who offer their own adventurous, avant-garde performances. End of Time will be available in CD and digital editions on October 7, 2022.

This record really hits that sweet spot of calm stimulation. Lush, fat, rolling synths form the foundation for controlled but passionate and thoughtful playing and listening from everyone. Meditative and energetic...and always bad-ass. ps0m

Leaving some room open for the breeze,which slips in unhurried, touches everyone in the room, imparts something, then goes its way. I could watch it leave again if I crane my neck, but why not just nod? What disappears is nodding too, like a distant boat on the sea, and I know something changed will return... Thomas Howell
