Rob Mazurek 

Somewhere in our conversation, Rob Mazurek mentions he wants listeners to “levitate” to his music. And, impossibly, I think he can pull it off. 

The trumpet player, composer, synth-master, mole maker is also the leader of the Exploding Star Orchestra, a jazzy bunch of rabble rousers who’s most recent album, Dimensional Stardust, is as baffling as it is beautiful. It’s like looking into an ever tumbling kaleidoscope and the millions of shining particles suddenly spitting out a fully formed Monet. This is music of a joyous revelry and we chatted with Rob about it.
