O’s Notes: Austrian keyboardist David Helbock plays old and new instruments, pushing the envelope in contemporary and modern jazz. Austrian Syndicate is a combination of jazz-fusion and rock-fusion as on “The Third Man”, funky jazz like “Money In The Pocket”, featuring guest Alex Acuna (perc), “The Ups and Downs” featuring Lakecia Benjamin (sax), “Crimson Wiman” featuring Fred Wesley (tb), and ballads like “We Need Some Help Down Here”.
