Jeremy Rose - Infinity II

With Infinity II, saxophonist and composer Jeremy Rose reunites with pianist Novak Manojlovic, drummer Tully Ryan and modular synth artist Ben Carey for an immersive meditation on time, motion and memory. The record is less a collection of tracks than a single unfolding gesture: patterns repeated, reshaped, and remembered, evoking the rituals of recall and transformation itself.

This is their second album, following on from the critically acclaimed Project Infinity: Live at Phoenix Central Park, and Rose’s 26th release. Beautifully recorded live at Lazybones Lounge in Marrickville, Sydney, Infinity II is a hypnotic exploration into the outer edges of jazz, ambient and electronic music.

With modular textures weaving through swirling improvisations and lyrical saxophone lines awash in reverb and delay, Rose and his collaborators craft immersive soundscapes that feel both timeless and urgently present.
“This group comprises some artists that I particularly resonate with. Everything feels completely natural when we play,” Rose explains. “It’s surprising listening back to it—it’s as if we are improvising composed pieces. The group manages to improvise form so well that it sounds composed. I guess that’s the beauty of it. Novak and Tully had just returned from touring together in Hekka, and they sounded particularly connected. But between the four of us, we managed to bring out something that night—everything came together.”

Mia Taninaka’s artwork extends the album into a visual realm. Her dreamlike imagery, where mythical figures, natural forms and celestial motifs intertwine, mirrors the music’s balance of fragility and power. Her painting invites the viewer into a world where organic and surreal patterns repeat and dissolve in continuous transformation. The vibrant palettes echo the music’s layered improvisations, suggesting motion, and timeless presence.
