Cliff's Edge (official video from "What Survives")

This is the opening track to Mueller's 2020 album "WHAT SURVIVES - Radio Edits" produced by Factory Underground Studio's Kenny Cash, recorded at Lawrence University, mixed at Sound City (L.A.)

An excellent example of contemporary Big Band jazz. Like much of Mueller's music, it fuses funk, post-bop, high energy modern jazz. The piece has multiple climaxes, moving from mid-tempo chill to explosive crescendos.

The Ensemble:

Tobin Mueller - B3 organ
Doug Schneider - tenor saxophone (soloist)
Woody Mankowski - soprano saxophone (soloist)
Tom Washatka - tenor saxophone
Ken Schaphorst - flugelhorn
Bob Levy - trumpet
Dane Richeson - drums
Jeff Cox - acoustic bass
Chris Mueller - acoustic piano
