Where it came from
Released in 2026 on the Creative Nation Music label, Tongues / Hope Language serves as a significant entry in the discography of guitarist and composer Eric Hofbauer. This project reflects Hofbauer's ongoing commitment to avant-garde jazz and structured improvisation, continuing his exploration of complex sonic textures that define his EHX ensemble work. The album was recorded during a period of prolific output for Hofbauer, capturing a live-in-studio energy intended to bridge the gap between traditional jazz instrumentation and contemporary experimental composition.
The design and conceptual framework for the record align with the minimalist, modern aesthetic often associated with the Creative Nation Music catalog. Hofbauer, who frequently oversees the production and visual direction of his releases, sought to emphasize the interplay between the two titled suites, which function as interconnected meditations on language and expression. Critical reception of the work has highlighted the precision of the ensemble's performance and Hofbauer's distinct approach to arranging, positioning the record as a notable contribution to the modern jazz landscape.
