Once upon a time, I heard some music in my head. Music that was very inspiring, happy and romantic, and made me feel good. I could hear the bright sound of guitar, playing smooth melodies combined with funky grooves. So, I went to the shop to find it.... After spending hours of listening to many CDs, I suddenly realized that this music does not exist. It only exists in my head. The next day I went to my studio, and started recording it. Soon I had a CD of the music that I was looking for. I called it Wonder Groove. Now, when I need inspiration, or just sit back and relax, I click a button on my iTunes player and.... feel good. By the way, you are listening to it right now. "Hailing from Great Britain, Eugene K returns smooth jazz to its ‘80s heyday on his new album Wonder Groove. Instead of the colorless, saxophone-driven uniformity that the genre eventually succumbed to, Eugene K keeps its roots alive by remembering the urban rhythms that once glued its foundation. Smooth jazz is at its best when it leans toward fusion, injecting its hybrid of traditional and synthetic instrumentation with a funky backbeat. 

In Wonder Groove, Eugene K knits together patterns of acoustic guitar prettiness and electronic heartbeats. The opening cut, "On the Island," unites Eugene K's gunslinger mastery of unplugged riffing with a Latin pulse. His guitar playing takes on a personality all its own, seemingly climbing to the heavens as he really starts to jam. While "Ginger Flame" finds Eugene K back on land with a relaxed yet still engaging tone, he achieves liftoff again on "Potato Sky" and "Happy Mode" with insistent funk rhythms and bubbly synthesizers. For those unfamiliar with Eugene K's music, Wonder Groove provides an accessible, infectious introduction, brimming with his slick, sleek guitar moves and throbbing electronics." (Jazz Corner).
