The Cosmic Surf Club are a new music production team
consisting of four musicians. They developed a unique way of
working, they call it 'four Koks in the kitchen' ('Koks' is dutch
for 'Cooks'), meaning everyone has equal say in deciding
which tunes they produce and how to arrange, mix and master
them.
Zane Massey is a master saxophone player from Brooklyn
New York. Being the son of trumpeter and composer Cal
Massey, he is a great composer in his own right, his specialty
is building unique song structures and arranging four-way
close horn parts. Then there's Saskia Jonker, a great jazz
singer with a warm and sultry voice, she specializes in vocal
and string arrangements and the painstaking practice of fine
tuning all the parameters of the mix and the master. Coen
Aalberts is a creative jazz drummer, he has played with many
big names in the international jazz scene. He's the one who
breathes life into the rhythm arrangements. Finally, there's
Maxim Baghuis, a piano virtuoso who knows all the ins and
outs of a modern studio and loves to create special effects.
The Cosmic Surf Club teamed up when they embarked on
their first project 'The Cal Massey Songbook'.
