Inspired by the beautiful dichotomy of classic jazz and electronica conceived in the Verve Remixed Series, Gabrielle & Architect is a new Winnipeg jazz project featuring ambient, atmospheric electronic jazz.
The project was founded by emerging Winnipeg jazz vocalist Gabrielle Ogilvie and is brought to life on stage through dynamic performances by live jazz musicians improvising over electronic soundscapes, generating a fresh twist on the standards we know and love. The band released their debut EP in 2013, featuring a collection of songs first recorded as traditional jazz standards with venerable Winnipeg jazz pianist Ron Paley at the helm.
Produced by jazz vocalist Helen White, each arrangement was carefully dissected, sampled and remixed by longtime Canadian DJ Joe Silva into a unique collection of truly modern interpretations of jazz standards.
