Stress Killer‘s sound, despite its sonic shelving so close to the nightclub sounds, it is made using traditional jazz instrumentation. Embracing ideas and desires to make people dance by approaching jazz as club music with its nods to the techno pioneers of Detroit, the deep house of Chicago and drawing from Leon’s previous collaborations with Laurent Garnier. The saxophone remains the ringleader and master of ceremonies across the album, fusing jazz codes with detailed electronic etiquette, notes and ideas speak to the bodies of dancers and club goers, making you want to move.
