    Jesse Brown releases album '20023' on Friday June 16, 2023

    June 15, 2023

    Saskatoon's Jesse Brown's waterfall release album '20023' was named after the serial number of his vintage felted upright piano that was with him for the entirety of his past few years of album, EP, and single releases. This $160 Kijiji purchase of a Heintzman upright piano that Jesse custom felted and close-micd for an intimate listening experience has lent itself to the minimalistic modern classical piano genre, and has helped launch Jesse's career into the realm of the greatest in the world. With multiple editorial additions on Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora Radio, Deezer, and many more DSP's, Jesse's precious piano has been listened to well over 100 million times over the past 4 years. '20023' prior singles have already found the favour of editors of Spotify, Apple Music, and Pandora Radio, and has a stream count of well over a million. Jesse's release was recorded in his home-based studio, mastered by Saskatoon's world-class mastering studio - Case Mastering - and released through Jesse's Sloppy Paws Records label.

Discography

  • Still

    Various Artists

    November 2017

    Still is Saskatchewan pianist/composer Jesse Brown’s fourth release of solo piano, and his second EP this year. Similar in character to his “Trilogy” EP, Brown’s recording technique involves an extremely close mic positioning to give you the feeling of sitting right beside him as he plays. The piano used is a rather small upright piano with the practice pedal engaged, resulting in some unpredictable note releases and key clicks. Recorded in a quaint room with hardwood floors, the recording style gives a very ‘live’ and resonant sound to these beautiful solo compositions.

    Recorded at: home studio, Saskatoon.  Produced by: Jesse Brown. Released: November 18, 2017

    May 2018

    Brown would have us believe that this new album contains ‘a re-working of a classic hymn’ though it is much more than that. Utilizing an upright, vintage piano, the songs are an instrumental, meditative duet between player and instrument, creating an intimate and raw blend that takes us to a new level of understanding. The title track takes us beyond words with repeating notes while rhythms uplift and console at the same time. The spaces in the music in ‘Amazing Grace’ pull us into this old gospel song through Brown’s playing and composing ability. Music is another language and Brown is the interpreter. Recorded at: home studio, Saskatoon. Produced by: Jesse Brown.
