Clear Path Ensemble is the neu project and brainchild of Wellington jazz and sonic arts graduate Cory Champion. Also producing left field house and techno under the name Borrowed CS, Clear Path Ensemble is Cory’s first offering to the jazz gods. Having spent many years playing drums alongside some of New Zealand’s most talented musicians in the revered Wellington jam session scene this release is an amalgamation of the energy & spirit that the Wellington scene encompasses.
Walking over the blurred lines of psychedelia and spiritual jazz and taking cues from planetary rhythms and celestial oddities, CPE invokes a higher sense of self through the transformative power of sound. In it’s truest essence these are a collection of cosmic compositions and a release that in our opinion is one of the heaviest to ever emerge from the New Zealand neo-jazz scene.

At Cosmic Compositions, we’ve long felt there was a similarity between the avant-garde/free jazz scene of the 50s/60s and the modern beat generation. Both movements aimed to deconstruct, expand and rewire the conventions of their genres of origin, and were never afraid to experiment or work outside the commercial framework of the time. With our Avant Garde Series, we connected the dots between the two, paying homage to Empire State Musicians like Pharoah Sanders, Alice Coltrane, and Sun-Ra along the way. 

In more recent years, we’ve sensed kindred spirit between jazz-infected beat music, and the new generation of lo-fi funk, psychedelia, noise, and folk musicians operating around the globe. While we’ve been feeling our way towards this liminal zone with projects from the likes of Mr. Armish, Affsid Kidjhagiffy, Aporia, and our Way Out compilation, jitwam’s new album ज़ितम सिहँ might be the most beautiful expression of it we’ve released yet. 

Born in Assam, Gauhati, in Northeast India, but currently based in New York’s storied borough of Brooklyn, jitwam spent his formative years in New Zealand and Australia, before living in monasteries in Thailand, orphanages in South Africa, and washed out apartments in London. Of everywhere and nowhere, his music draws influence from a litany of iconoclasts including, but not limited to RD Burman, Moondog, The Velvet Underground, Yayoi Kusama, Jay Electronica, Jay Dilla, Moodymann, Leon Thomas, Madlib and Asha Bhosle. 

Across the album he utilises knowledge acquired through years spent digging through dusty crates, and talents honed as a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and vocalist. A series of stumbling, jazz/soul-rooted beat sculptures, each buried beneath a haze of fuzzy psychedelia, broken microphone blues, and articulated through a freestyled process he describes as “first thought, best thought”, ज़ितम सिहँ solidifies jitwam's spot as a major emerging talent. 

Recalling the fourth world dreamscapes explored by oddball songwriters like Connan Mockasin, Clarence Clarity, Jai Paul, Silicon, and Unknown Mortal Orchestra, it represents a time of transition and remembrance for jitwam, while still fulfilling the core qualities he looks for in song. In his words, “Music is a refuge. A shelter from the storm. A place you can go to close your eyes.” 

Since he first shared his music with IZWID Records boss Kutmah at a Brainfeeder afterparty in London, jitwam has released through Leaving Records, Cosmic Compositions, and The Jazz Diaries (the label he co-runs with Casey Van Reyk and Nigel Mphisa). He’s also written with Inkswel (BBE) and Paul White (R&S), featured on Moodymann’s K7! DJ Kicks compilation and been championed by Gilles Peterson, Alexander Nut, Andrew Jervis (Bandcamp), and Funkineven. Mixed and mastered by Matthew David at Stones Throw studios in Los Angeles, ज़ितम सिहँ will be available on vinyl and digital formats through Cosmic Compositions / hhv.de.

Budapest born and based producer/keyboardist Szabolcs Bognar starts his new collaborative jazz project https://soundcloud.com/abasemusic with debut single "Skeme goes all city".
The base of the track is a smooth cinematic sounding riverbed of soothing harmonies where different instruments flow around in repetitive phrases. Every phrase repeats itself in the perfect length, as soon as you get your fix - a new melody kicks in.
"We wrote and recorded the track in one improvised studio session back in 2016. I brought the harmonic structure and the main melody and the band built on top of that. Everyone brought something to the table. It was recorded in the oldschool way, all the musicians in the same room, no headphones, no chance for correcting mistakes or editing. Raw. The title is a dedication to the New York graffiti pioneer Skeme and the power of self expression in Hip Hop culture." - Àbáse

"Fanni Zahár - flute, vocals

Tamás Heilig - bass 
Tamás Czirják - drums

"This record is about...growing up. I think. It's about dealing with your own stuff for once. Accepting responsibility, maybe. It's a self help book addressed to myself. And just like every other piece of art ever made in history of the hominid, I was going through some shit when I was making it. I'd just left home and everyone I knew, looking to chase a dream. It was an awkward phase, like stage two puberty. I was learning how to be grown. Humility had my pride in a headlock. I was the old man at the art exhibition, the young boy at the art gallery. Everyone was in a K-hole, I was at K-Mart." - Tom Scott

Christoph El Truento - Hoohaa

Clocking in at 21 songs, plus two remixes from DJ Manny and Borrowed CS, LWMP18 is an astonishing investigation of the power and potential of juke and footwork music, as re-imagined through the lens of an antipodean artist looking at the world both online and from a significant geographical distance. Interlacing footwork song structures and rhythms with elements of jazz, soul, baile funk, and R&B, it’s a unique take that could only really come from the ends of the Earth.

For the latest mix in our series https://soundcloud.com/etnohome takes us on a sonic journey to the Bit Stream Lounge.
Do you ever feel like you’re trapped in the neverending present, letting modern technology entertain you while you’re waiting for the future to arrive? That’s the Bit Stream Lounge, the online waiting room we’ve all been spending time in during the era of social distancing and self-isolation. Addison’s Bit Stream Lounge mix asks you to reflect on how technology can be used to divide or connect. It asks you to think about how in a time where one can often feel surrounded by nefarious algorithms, the problem isn’t actually technology; it’s how we do or don’t choose to use it.
As a species, humanity has a choice between two doors. We have all the tools we need to create a brighter future, but we have to want it. If your number had just been called in the Bit Stream Lounge, which door will you walk through?

After releasing New Zealand composer, drummer and producer Cory Champion’s acclaimed Clear Path Ensemble jazz album at the start of 2020, we’re proud to bookend the project with a new digital EP of remixes of songs off the album by Kush Jones, Christoph El Truento, AceMo, Glenn Astro, Daniel Hayles, and Champion under his Borrowed CS house and techno alias.

Where the Clear Path Ensemble album was a vivid ode to psychedelia, spiritual jazz, planetary rhythms and celestial oddities, these remixes turn his cosmic compositions into suped-up starcraft. Glen Astro and Kush Jones give ‘Jerry’s Funk’ a series of electro, dub techno and footwork re-rubs. Christoph El Truento and Borrowed CS both reimagine ‘Drip’ for the orbital nightclubs of the future. Mongo Skato rebuilds ‘Future Fatigue’ to a pounding pulse, and AceMo takes ‘Panorama Actual Spectral’ to Saturn and back. Rounding things out Daniel Hayles meditates on ‘Inner Space’ through sparse-but-emotive piano figures.

If you’ve already spent some time on the Clear Path Ensemble mothership, hearing how these considerable talents have reframed Champion’s jazz pieces is a real joy. And if not, start here on the dancefloor, before making your way back into the lounge bar later on.

Mongo Skato rebuilds ‘Future Fatigue’ to a pounding pulse, and AceMo takes ‘Panorama Actual Spectral’ to Saturn and back. Rounding things out Daniel Hayles meditates on ‘Inner Space’ through sparse-but-emotive piano figures.

If you’ve already spent some time on the Clear Path Ensemble mothership, hearing how these considerable talents have reframed Champion’s jazz pieces is a real joy. And if not, start here on the dancefloor, before making your way back into the lounge bar later on.

Panorama Actual Spectral (AceMo's Actualization Mix)

After releasing New Zealand composer, drummer and producer Cory Champion’s acclaimed Clear Path Ensemble jazz album at the start of 2020, we’re proud to bookend the project with a new digital EP of remixes of songs off the album by Kush Jones, Christoph El Truento, AceMo, Glenn Astro, Daniel Hayles, and Champion under his Borrowed CS house and techno alias.

Where the Clear Path Ensemble album was a vivid ode to psychedelia, spiritual jazz, planetary rhythms and celestial oddities, these remixes turn his cosmic compositions into suped-up starcraft.

Jerry's Funk (Kush Jones Remix)

For the latest mix in our series one of our favourite music journalist's/DJ's Martyn Pepperell takes us on an indepth look into the world of 80's K pop & City Pop. Unearthing some of his rare finds when digging through the streets of Seoul. 

"Two years ago, I spent a feverish week in Seoul. I was staying in a hotel with the most uncomfortable bed on Earth, my back was killing me, and I could barely sleep. While I was there, I caught up with the excellent boogie producer Mogwaa, who was kind enough to take me record shopping at some markets in the city, and smart enough to suggest ordering chicken soup for lunch. I left Seoul with hazy neon-lit memories, a full belly, and about twenty Korean disco, boogie, synth-pop and lounge records from the '70s and 80s. Cosmic Compositions asked me to put together another mix, so I decided to put those dusty gems to work, and here we are. Listen closely, among other delights; you'll hear Korean language covers of 'Just The Two Of Us' and 'Funky Town".  - Martyn Pepperell

Se◯ul Nights [Mix By Martyn Pepperell]

Yesterday we awoke to the devastating news that one of our dear friends Reuben Samuel Winters [Totems] has sadly left us. 

Reuben was one of the most beautiful souls we've ever had the chance of knowing. He was a sweet, caring, open hearted/minded and constantly positive individual. Even though he was dealing with a lot personally he always had a smile on his face and endless amounts of love to give. He was a huuge inspiration for us growing up in Auckland and one of the most talented individuals to emerge from the New Zealand music scene in many moons.

After hearing about his passing while on the other side of the world we immediately connected with him the only way possible at the time which was through his music. This mix which he recorded for us back in 2017 was originally only released on our mixcloud and shares an insight into the heart and mind of this beautiful individual and brought tears to our eyes while listening. We felt that for anyone out there who knew and loved him this mix would provide a perfect soundtrack to reminisce on his memory. 

Thank you for your inspiration, love, music and energy Reuben.
You will live on forever in our hearts / minds and speakers.
Rest in Peace

Eul◯gy [Mix By Totems]

Being totally sober and super aware of reality has created a need to reconcile with the past and heal in the present. Is necessary a time to be kind to ourselves. 
This selection has been an outlet for this emotional state. 
Looking for something that was thought lost. Something like "that thing" that made things special in our surroundings: voices, lights, sounds, silences and subtle sensations. 
It feels like learning to dream one more time.
