THE WAIT IS OVER.. the prodigious master of experimental bass, G Jones unveils his highly anticipated album ‘Paths’ via Illusory Records.
A worthy follow-up to his last album, 2018 Billboard top 10 electronic album of the year The Ineffable Truth, ‘Paths’ will be accompanied by an awe-inspiring live show which will make its global debut on October 15th at his headlining show at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
‘Paths’ is a breathtaking opus that defies categorization. G Jones effortlessly navigates the sonic spectrum, seamlessly weaving together elements of breakbeat, IDM, ambient, trap, and experimental music. Each track is a unique portal into uncharted sonic dimensions, inviting listeners to lose themselves in a universe of intricate soundscapes and mind-bending textures. With over 70M streams, DJ Mag ‘Producer of the Year’ nod, a Red Rocks headline debut and a massive 26 date headline bus tour that crisscrosses the nation, it’s clear G Jones is making a triumphant return to the forefront of the electronic landscape.

Along with the album, G Jones and his visual collaborators have meticulously crafted an entirely new audiovisual world: Paths Live. With a musical performance that includes everything from live acid lines and breakbeat chopping to granular synthesis and live piano, this is far and away G Jones’ most ambitious performance to date. Visually, the Paths Live show embraces limitation, using only white pixels and existing entirely within a 16×9 grid system, to create a beautiful and manic, singular and unforgettable show that could only be G Jones.
“I’ve been working on the Paths Live show all year, remixing and reformatting songs from Paths as well as the rest of my catalog for live performance, and also doing multi-day IRL work sessions with my team of visual collaborators, building this new show from scratch. I can hardly contain my excitement about it all. I’ve been discovering so many new ways to perform my songs in a live context, and really believe that the audiovisual aspect of the show will be far beyond anything we’ve done before.
I’m feeling extremely grateful for my core visuals team: Shinichiro Fujita, Alec Donkin, Jayson Esguerra, Mike Kluge, and Lauren Marrone, who are all working so hard to help me hone and execute these ideas. Getting to debut Paths Live at Red Rocks is an actual dream come true for me, and I want to say a deeply heartfelt thank you to everyone who has supported my music and attended my shows over the years for making this dream a reality.” – G Jones
