“Transition” is the sixth album by Ray Bach to appear under the Freeze Frame moniker, and is arguably the most artistically accomplished Freeze Frame release to date. Over the course of its four-year composition, recording and production, this stylistically impeccable work has matured into a richly eclectic album that is at once coolly retrospective yet distinctly modern, at times reassuringly familiar yet by turns fascinatingly inventive. Ray Bach explains the album’s title: ” I have chosen the title “Transition” because it clearly reflects the progression from the first album “Moviescores” right through to the present day. You could divide the album into three parts. The first six tracks are real songs, some pop-oriented, and some have more jazz elements. The next four tracks are typical Freeze Frame smooth jazz titles. The last two tracks bring back the feeling of the early Freeze Frame. It’s like going back in time. Even if the direction of the material is somewhat different, ranging from west coast pop to jazz and ambient. But it’s still Freeze Frame music and that’s why “Transition” is the best description I have.”
