«Во-первых, это красиво». Даже очень красиво.
> Just when I think I know what jazz is, someone like Yosef Gutman comes along and kicks my little sand castle over.
> Resisei Lyla, Gutman’s latest album released on January 16th, 2026, is a blend of jazz, African, and Jewish music. It’s a blend that reflects its creator. Yosef Gutman was born in South Africa, studied jazz at Berklee, found a career in New York, left music for tech (he founded Mad Mimi, a newsletter startup later acquired by GoDaddy), settled in Jerusalem, and then left tech to return to music. Quite the journey.
> Journey is probably the word that best describes Resisei Lyla. The music covers a wide range of emotional and psychological ground. There is playfulness, contemplation, gratitude, unease, darkness, and light. I imagine a person wandering aimlessly through a fog, which at times thins to reveal a small glimpse of something beyond. The name Resisei Lyla means “drops of night.”
> It sounds serious, and it is. But behind the seriousness, one gets a sense of lightness at play. Indeed, Gutman is the kind of man that will write a song like “Yedid Nefash,” the closing track on Resisei Lyla, which sounds like the prayer of a man struggling to know himself, and then take a picture like this.
