日々その可能性を大きく押し広げ今改めて注目される現代のジャズ界から、また新たなディーヴァが現れた。彼女の名はRajdulari(ラージュドゥラリ)。デビューアルバム『HoneyWine』から現在に至るまで一貫してストイックな作品づくりに挑み続ける彼女は、Billie HolidayやSarah Vaughnを思わせる芯の太いジャズに70年代ソウルやファンクのテイストを絶妙に織り交ぜ、独自の表現を探求してきた。二作目となる本作『Journey of a Woman』では、デビュー作で見出した音楽的方向性を自ら着実に踏襲した上で、ただ引き継ぐだけの退屈な作品ではなくより自身の内部へと迫った、彼女にとってある種自伝的な作品としての表現を聴くことができる。また作品中には幾つかのラブソングを耳にすることもできる。「いつか必ず訪れる特別な出会いに備えてまずは自分と向き合うこと、自分をしっかりと愛してあげることが必要なの」と語る彼女ならではの、恋する者たちへのエールは人々に勇気と希望を与えるに違いない。
オープニングを飾る”Journey of a Woman”では、ジャズとネオソウルが火花を散らし、刺激的で豊かなサウンドが瞬く間にリスナーを丸呑みにする。また歌声とストリングスの調和が美しいミディアム・バラード”Real Love”や、民族調のサウンドに乗せて語り紡がれる言葉が印象的な”Peace”など、めくるめく彼女の世界がこの一枚の中に炸裂している。8つのオリジナルトラックに加え、Tina Turner、Mtumeという懐かしのアーティストたちの名曲カヴァーも収録された内容充実の必聴盤、今を生きるジャズがここにある。

Powerful, infectious and oh-so-timely in its lyrical subject matter, ‘The Only Difference’ is the first single introducing ‘Heavy Rocking Steady’, the forthcoming album from Beatchild & The Slakadeliqs.

Modern soul music performed and arranged in the truest R&B tradition, songwriter Byram Joseph (aka Slakah The Beatchild) is joined on lead vocals by fellow Canadian artist Justin Nozuka whose clean, pure vocal tone lends a new dimension to the song. A forceful call for unity in these uncertain times, ‘The Only Difference’ is driven by dusty piano and rattly acoustic drums, soon joined by a chorus of backing vocals, giving the track a distinctly live feeling.

The Brand New Heavies Ft. N'Dea Davenport - Getaway

I adore Adrianna Evans. Her tunes are quite simplistic but her voice carries everything through so beautifully.
This was just supposed to be a quick extended edit this morning to go on my iPod but got itchy fingers and ended up 
adding some flute, jazz trumpet and all sorts! 

Anyways, thought I'd share with you if you fancy a bit of chillaxing :)

A fav' or a comment would be great if you take a download :))

Cheers

Founded in 1996 by Peter Adarkwah, Barely Breaking Even (BBE Music) started life as a London club night, taking its name from the eponymous Disco record by the Universal Robot Band.

The label grew from the vibrant early 90's club scene with its first release, Stop & Listen compiled by Dr Bob Jones in 1996, opening the door to iconic series' such as All Back To Mine & Late Nite Tales.

A tonne of releases followed, ranging from Disco to Funk, Jazz to House. In the year 2000, the label celebrated Masters at Work's 10th Anniversary with a mighty box set that featured near 80 tracks.

A year later BBE Music spawned the Beat Generation Series of artist albums, notably introducing J Dilla (Welcome 2 Detroit) & a young Will.I.Am's first solo outing, alongside DJ Jazzy Jeff, Madlib & DJ Spinna, all of whom contributed to this seminal set of long players.

A quarter of a century and well over 500 titles later, having worked with Mark Ronson, Roy Ayers, Questlove, Hugh Masekela, DJ Premier, Dimitri from Paris, Joey Negro, Kon, RZA, Laurent Garnier, Black Coffee, DJ Shadow, David Rodigan and John Morales among many others, BBE Music looks to the future, celebrating its rich heritage while continuing to release a bounty of fresh titles.

The label’s most recent projects include an expansive reissue series from pioneering Nigerian label Tabansi, new imprint ‘Batakari’ in association with Boddhi Satva and the critically acclaimed ‘J Jazz’ Japanese Jazz multi-album project, not to mention the recent landmark 500th label release: a brand new version of 'Barely Breaking Even', featuring Leroy Burgess, Patrick Adams and Louie Vega.

In 2021 BBE Music is celebrating its 25th anniversary. To mark this milestone, the label is offering up some special projects, from the 20th Anniversary edition of J Dilla’s ‘Welcome 2 Detroit’, through David Bowie tribute album ‘Modern Love’, to a special new ‘Worldwide’ compilation from old friend Gilles Peterson. BBE Music will also be looking to the future with more exciting original artist projects, plus merch collaborations events and more...
