Watchin Out

Today Is the Day (Linkwood Chop)

Meet Me On The Corner is taken from the album ‘Orange Whip’ which was BBC 6 Music’s Album of The Day on its release. A pounding beat beefed up by bass, guitar and brass, propels forward while ‘Ríoghnach Connolly’ (pronounced Rainer) sings lyrics that could be straight out of the playground, but suggest something a little deeper.

Here is a remix from the legends of funky house music, ‘Crazy P’ with both vocal and dub versions. Turning Honeyfeet’s latest opus into a straight up soulful disco monster by ‘Hot Toddy’ and ‘Ron Basejam’, with Rioghnach’s rasping vocals playfully meandering over crisp beats and trademark live bass.

Tenderlonious led jazz quartet, Ruby Rushton, return with a brand new limited 7” single, a swift response to their highly acclaimed “Ironside” album released back in April of this year. These two new tracks continue to push the bands sound into newterritory.

'Overture 1' is a brand new composition from Ruby Rushton keyboard player Aidan Shepherd. Taking inspiration from bands like Weather Report and Soft Machine, its explosive introduction leads you to a dub-like breakdown, creating an open space for Shepherd to let loose his synthesizer for some deep space, Headhunters’esque exploration. 

'Yardley Suite' is a song first conceived by band leader Ed ‘Tenderlonious’ Cawthorne back in 2012. Having lied dormant for several years it felt like an appropriate time to pull it back out the bag. It’s a composition inspired by Cawthorne’s solo work as an electronic producer, under his alias Tenderlonious. Always wanting to merge his various approaches, 'Yardley Suite' is the perfect mix of Jazz and House. With a steady four tothe floor beat and snappy horn lines its sure to work its magic on dancefloors around the globe. 

Having focused on improvisation and more “open” compositions in the past, the bands new direction is geared towards tighter, more groove-orientated arrangements. This exciting new material is yet further evidence that this is a highly prolific band at the top of their game, continually evolving, stretching out their own unique sound across the full jazz spectrum. 

This is a, one off run, limited edition 7" single. 300 copies only with bespoke painted artwork from Lorna Robertson. No repress!

Celebrating all styles of contemporary jazz from a myriad of fresh, exciting talents within the Lowlands, Super-Sonic Jazz Records is proud to announce its first label compilation featuring some of the finest, and diverse jazz, and jazz-influenced tracks from the scene’s very best. Super-Sonic Family Vol.1 directly follows up the sold-out Super-Sonic Jazz Festival that took place at Amsterdam’s Paradiso late last year, and is the culmination of years of dedicated work throwing events, and releasing records.

The thirteen-track compilation as compiled by KC The Funkaholic and brothers Vincent and Siemen Tenzers — the central figures behind Super-Sonic Jazz — is a snapshot of the rising jazz scene in the Netherlands, featuring a strong assortment of styles and practises, all built around a central jazz ethos. It’s a local breed of talent that has been fostered and championed by the Super-Sonic family for several years now, and with the compilation they’ve captured the Joie de vivre of the refreshed youthfulness that has been shaping the area’s musical direction. From housier beats, to fast tempos and smooth grooves with global sounds, the variety of styles and practises shows how the different communities and artists — whether they be established or fully recognised —have managed to build bridges between themselves through a strong connection the unorthodox rhythms and dark arts of soulful, and beat-driven jazz.

Featured on the record of the sounds of several producers, including local soulful beat-maker Planty Herbs, Rhythm Section producer Duke Hugh who brings a touch of cinematic percussion with an impassioned danceable gem, plus Rotterdam’s very own Ranie Ribeiro, aka. Ranie Ribeiro who channels energy from Cape Verde with some harp-heavy dancefloor sounds. Served up also is a smooth variety of extremely prodigious instrumentation; keys-man and Cinematic Orchestra alumni Dominic J Marshall splashes out with a blissful Rhodes jam, Super Sonic’s very own GreyHeads unleash their own re-interpretation of drum & bass, soul music, while Arp Frique’s Djosa lays down some instrumental, exotic jazz, boogie disco. In addition, renowned muso Trian Kayhatu is on board with some straight-up future soul, Son Swagga sets down some psychedelic jazz fusion, and Dominic J Marshall collaborator Glenn Gaddum Jr., aka, one of the Netherlands’ best bass players, bring a touch of class, with his effortless and dreamy music.

What started out as a series of events and shows at Paradiso has now gone on to become one of the most prolific hubs for jazz in the Netherlands. The label has gone on to bridge gaps between classic and modern scenes by re-releasing long lost gems alongside releases from the some of the scene’s newest, underground talents. Alongside the festival, the Super-Sonic Family compilation is just the latest step in the their development, and an important benchmark in the region’s jazz legacy.
