Life is like a roller coaster ride! Diego Pinera, the drummer from Berlin, recently had far too much of it. "This part of the album title reflects my life over the last few years," he conceded candidly—and by that he also meant very personal matters. He had to overcome "very dark moments" and even a serious illness. On the other hand, there was a variety of great experiences with music. Then a painful separation. On the other hand, he was awarded the German Jazz Prize in the spring of 2023. The musician, who comes from Uruguay and has lived in Germany for more than two decades, was nominated twice: as a composer (the winning title "Through Hell" is on this album) and as an arranger. "These were many extremes at the time." And without a doubt, he found therein a breeding ground for many things that can be heard on the excellent new album "Underground Roller Coaster".

Underground? “Our attitude is pretty much underground, not in the free jazz sense, but perhaps in the punk sense." This spirit was reinforced by the unusual recording conditions. Pinera had decided that his quartet would largely record this album live in a large studio room—just like his great role models from the 1950s and 1960s. In search of a suitable location, he discovered the Zentrifuge Studio in Berlin's Wedding district: a rough, unique place where jazz and avant-garde are lived: "Chaotic and crazy just like Berlin! Full shelves. You play live standing in a semi-circle—no headphones, almost like in a concert." The amazing result: a harmonious organic sound, to which the careful mixing and mastering by specialist Martin Ruch contributed.
