CD by Amsterdam based tentet with 12 original compositions by leader/trombonist Joost Buis, that zoom in on various combinations of players. Catchy themes and zoomin grooves with the focus on improvisation. "Astronotes has its own ensemble personality, developed over a decade of frequent gigs. Where other leaders rush under-ripe bands into the studio, Buis waited until the lineup had been fully tweaked, the concept fine-tuned, and the pieces developed to let their facets and the players shine." (Kevin Whitehead in AV guide) "Buis and his band play quite convincingly, not only when they extend ideas from the written page, but also when they innovate at the instant. There is a sense of fun imparted to several of the tunes, a zest and vitality that grabs right away." (Jerry D'Souza on allaboutjazz.com) "Fabulous arranged/improv'd jazz with that Dutch character, minus the silliness that sometimes accompanies it, but not without an uplifting vibe throughout."(Gary Sisco on jazzcornertalk)
