Cyberville Bandit, aka Wally Flint, doesn’t exactly follow the usual playbook, and you get that through “Rock Jazz Manifesto.” A solo artist with roots stretching back to the jazz-fusion boom of the ’70s, Flint finally lets decades of ideas spill into one genre-blurring track, born in long-haul truck routes across…

Ellery Twining and Ben Bostian converge on a shared creative wavelength with this release, crafting a piece that feels as much like a concept as it does a listening experience.
