I saw these guys in Rotterdam last month and it was such an engaging concert. They have totally mastered the multimedia performance!! :)

Dutch trio Tin Men and the Telephone are past masters at using voice samples as the basis for their music, featuring everything from cows to football commentators. This time a selection of Jazz on 3 listeners get the treatment. We asked our audience what jazz should sound like in 2014, recorded some of their replies and passed them on to the band to create a brand new piece which they performed at the Manchester Jazz Festival. Here are the results!

The track is also being broadcast on Jazz on 3 on Monday 4 August at 11pm on BBC Radio 3, and is available on iPlayer for 28 days afterwards http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b04cfb60
