Terrace Martin – No Ice Please [Video]
Terrace Martin shares the official video for “No Ice Please,” a compact jazz-rooted track with Marcus Gilmore from PURPOSE.
The track pairs Martin with drummer Marcus Gilmore, and it does not need much time to make its point. At just under two minutes, “No Ice Please” works like a quick conversation between texture and rhythm: loose keys, crisp movement, jazz instincts, and enough low-end weight to keep it from floating away. It is short, but it has shape.
Inside PURPOSE, the record sits among compact pieces that feel more like sketches with intent than unfinished fragments. Martin and Gilmore use space well across the album, letting each idea breathe without stretching it past its natural length. “No Ice Please” captures that approach neatly—direct, musical, and gone before it wears out the mood.
The official video follows the same logic. Rather than turning the track into a heavy statement, it leans into feel, timing, and presence, matching the looseness of the music while keeping the focus on the groove.
