corto.alto is a beast.
Constantly pushing the boundaries of contemporary jazz, Liam's new single, "THIEF" solidifies his experimental era thanks to the blend of chopped classical strings, thumping breakbeats, and Jersey club bass rhythms. A breath of fresh air in the sea of sameness we're getting daily.
There's this cinematic tension to the way the track opens, which explains why he has recently used it as an opener for his live sets. A slow-burning ignition that instantly locks the room into its frequency.
Oh, yes - our team spotted corto.alto in our latest piece, Modern Jazz Artists to Watch in 2026: The New Wave of Jazz. If you dig this sound, definitely check the rest of the list.
