"... his finest release to date ... myriad influences in a dynamic package that keeps Cole at the very top of the food chain when it comes to contemporary instrumental music. It doesn't get much better than this."
- CriticalJazz.com
Saxophonist Steve Cole comes full circle creatively on Pulse as he mixes R&B, contemporary jazz, gospel, blues and pop. Co-produced and co-written with fellow saxman David Mann, the collection showcases Cole’s musical passions and his affinity for infectious melodies, a wall of horns and soulful grooves. His inspired sax play throughout Pulse is poured with passion and precision, enriched with genuine soul power. There is feverish urgency and muscle along with harnessed control, grace and gentility.
"Pulse is about finding an audience and really honouring them. I have a voice and an instrument, but my job is to entertain. It's simple in a way: if you focus on those people right in front of you and what excites them, you win every time. My work is about moving people. If you can figure out how to do that, the rest falls into place."
