MIMS is very excited to have the first drop on Orestes Gomez' remix for fellow Venezuelan Raúl Monsalve y los Forajidos' "Bocón". A lush neo-soul & jazz heavy bed for Luzmira Zerpa's poignant verbal attack on lying politicians. Taken from a forthcoming remixes 45 on London-based Olindo Records.

Orestes' remix made a BIG impression on Raúl Monsalve: "I was so impressed by what Orestes did, taking the original track to another realm... and groovy as a motherfucker". Orestes is joined on the track by some impressive sidemen, including bassist Daniel Briceño (La Vida Boheme) and flautist Eric Chacón (Tony Succar / Miguel Siso).

Orestes Gomez is one of the most recognized drummers in Latin America. His work fusing musical genres including: Afro, Latin, Hip Hop, and Jazz has earned him international recognition. He has travelled the world playing and collaborating with some of the most respected bands of Latin America including; Los Amigos Invisibles, Gustavo Dudamel, Caloncho, Mcklopedia, Apache, and Akapellah. On the remix he is joined by some exciting musicians, including bassist Daniel Briceño (La Vida Boheme) and flautist Eric Chacón (Tony Succar / Miguel Siso).

Last year Orestes produced the entirety of 'Dealers in Caracas', a hip hop album in partnership with Venezuelan MC Mcklopedia, and earlier this year he released a series of contemporary jazz pieces in a trio with Latin Grammy nominated pianist Gabriel Chakarji and bassist Freddy Adrian.

Raúl Monsalve and his all-star family of musicians received praise and support for their exciting fusion of Afro Venezuelan rhythms with Latin jazz, psych, funk and Afrobeat, from the likes of Gilles Peterson, Gideon Coe, Huey Morgan, Stuart Maconie (BBC Radio 6 Music), Jazz FM, NTS, Songlines, Bandcamp, Radio Nova, Le Grigri, FIP, and of course, Music Is My Sanctuary.

Raúl Monsalve y los Forajidos are currently on a European tour with dates across France, Luxembourg, Germany, Switzerland and the Supersonic Jazz Festival in Amsterdam.

The Orestes Gomez remix of "Bocón" is streaming from this week across all the usual platforms and is available to pre-order on vinyl and download from the Olindo Records Bandcamp.

Intergalactic Jazz fused with Hip-Hop. Think Nujabes and Pete Rock remix a Lonnie Liston Smith album arranged by David Axelrod. We realise that's far too much name-dropping for two sentences, but it describes the direct influences and vision of UK born producer Rob Waite aka Daylight Robbery. Rob grew up in London and Frankfurt before moving to Brooklyn, New York where ‘Moons of Jupiter’ – his first album for MPM – was recorded. "The sonic identity of the music is my homage to all the amazing Jazz fusion records that came out between ‘71 and ‘74, fused with a 90’s Hip-Hop vibe I struggle to get away from. With the help of some amazing musician friends, I was able to move beyond loop-based sampling techniques and take a step towards a more free flowing Jazz focused energy.” 

The album title ‘Moons of Jupiter’ refers to the 80 known moons of Jupiter that form a satellite system called the Jovian system. 12 of these moons are visited throughout the listening experience, starting in the light, and progressively moving into darkness. The artwork has been created by Cologne-based illustrator Giza One.

The Gradients Project - Hue EP out 3/25 on Unspeakable Records

The Gradients project was created to blend different creative platforms. Our philosophy is that nothing in life is black or white, but a gradient. We explore this concept through various intersections and collaborations between mediums including (not limited to) visual art, design, dance, film, music, architecture, food, computer science, and more.

The most recent Gradients Project that NY-based artist Kathy Lee (aka Yaeji) spearheaded has been the Gradients Mix series--a collection of 30 minute mixes that aurally translate a gradient of 2 colors. She has also been hosting Live Gradients shows in New York where each musical performer is assigned a color to interpret through their set.

"'Hue' was an audio-visual study for me. When I first decided to challenge myself and make multiple tracks that could sit under one theme to be an EP or album, I was stuck with the preconceived idea that it has to hold one consistent sound. That very quickly became limiting for me, so I decided to think of the songs as colors instead, flowing from one to the other like a gradient, to inspire my production. That is why my tracks are each named a color and they all connect to become one, long gradient."

PREMIERE: Bluestaeb & S. Fidelity Present Underground Canopy - Tony Sendo [MENACE Records]

We are absolutely in love with the luscious grooves of "Moon Crab". Falling somewhere between jazz, electronic music and modern funk, whilst evoking the futuristic soulful boogie sound pioneered by Kaidi Tatham, et al. Due for release on a limited 7" vinyl, September 21, via Angis Music, with a special vocal duet ballad, "Absence", on the flip.

HUMA is a new concept from Alberto Lincetto and Stefano Cosi, both musicians and producers belonging to the Italian experimental soul and jazz scene. Already active in other projects such as PCKT and Collettivo Immaginario, they boast collaborations with international artists such as Chauncey Yearwood, Tommaso Cappellato and Serena Brancale. The debut EP presents two very different scenarios where the solidity and minimalism of the rhythms blend with the deep yet reﬁned harmonies. "Moon Crab" is the reminiscence of a cosmic journey with modern funk features, where a liquid and indeﬁnite sound mass slowly evolves into a climax of drums and synthesizers, giving life to an irrepressible ﬂow of emotions. “Absence”, instead, with its melancholic tones and electronic acoustic sound represents a perfect epilogue with an open ending. The rest we will discover just by listening.
