Thank you🙏🙏❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🥰

A smoothed out, catchy little downtempo bobber from a cool late-winter night in The Vault.  Makaya bounces on a flammed rimshot, Abrams jumps in quickly with some nice bass chords, Justefan colors the progression with his singing vibraphone harmonies, and Marquis tops it all off with a gorgeous trumpet melody and solo verse.

Recorded on March 5th, 2014 by Dave Vettraino.  Personnel: Makaya McCraven - drums, Joshua Abrams - bass, Justin Thomas - vibraphone, Marquis Hill - trumpet.

After the dynamo sophomore release that was 2013's "Curiosities", New Zealand's Lord Echo returns to Brooklyn's Bastard Jazz label, this time producing Kiwi trio The Elder Statesman comprised of twin brothers and Wellington fixtures Christopher (piano) and Daniel (double bass) Yeabsley with Lord Echo himself on percussion and drums. 

On the "A" side, Montreux Sunrise is mellow meander through a laidback early 70s souljazz vibes, while "Trans Alpine Express" picks things up on the B side with a deep, spiritual piano groove, upfront doublebass, and Echo's percussion perfectly in the pocket. 

A timeless gem of a 7" from Bastard Jazz, releasing their own namesake for once!

The Elder Statesman - Trans-Alpine Express

“ASHVARA” resonates as a meeting point between East and West — a seamless blend of lo-fi warmth, cinematic expanse, and subtle Eastern motifs. Flowing at ~70 BPM in C, the track breathes across a generous 34 dB dynamic range, where textures rise and fall like shifting light through mist. Its balanced stereo field lets every detail drift naturally, while the –18 LUFS loudness enhances intimacy without losing depth.

Perfect for night reflections, meditative focus, or creative sessions, “ASHVARA” unfolds like an ancient mantra translated into modern sound. Lo-fi grooves provide grounding, while ambient textures and soulful undertones expand the atmosphere into something timeless. This is not just a song, but an East–West electronic fusion carried by truth in sound.

Celebrating 20 years of Barely Breaking even, independent UK record label presents a series of exclusive DJ mixes to mark the occasion. Available in both mixed and unmixed formats, the series includes a stellar lineup of DJs, selecting their personal favourites and obscure gems from BBE's bounty of classic titles.

The first BBE20 mix in the series comes from highly respected UK DJ and mix-tape specialist Chris Read, the man behind BBC New Music Award winning electronica outfit Maylight and compiler of BBE's 2012 album 'Latin Concrete', which was featured as 'Album Of The Week' by the Independent newspaper. The first of two mixes produced by Chris in celebration of BBE's 20th birthday, the first installment guides the listener on a journey through some of BBE's sultry downtempo and hip hop cuts, steadily making its way toward warm soul and disco, expertly building up momentum over the course of 23 genre-hopping tracks in the mix's 65 minute run-time.

About “The Egyptian Second Line” 

In the spirit of reclaiming that which colonization sought to destroy, I'm releasing the first single from my upcoming album Afro-Caribbean Mixtape at the top of Columbus Day weekend. Like a piece of African patchwork, this track is comprised of a lot of different elements — some old, some new. The main body of this record was constructed from the end vamp of a tune I wrote for Dr. Greg Carr (chair of African-American studies at Howard University) called, “Kimathi.” In fact, throughout the piece, you can hear my turntablist, DJ Lady Fingaz, scratching a sample I chopped from one of his interviews. I constructed a new work by cutting and pasting the best moments of Kevin Hays and I playing keyboards on top of the extended jam, and superimposed that over the groove laid down by bassist Vicente Archer, drummer Joe Dyson, and percussionist Daniel Sadownick. I did this with the help of my mix engineer, Blake Leyh (The Wire, Treme). 

Towards the beginning of the piece, you'll hear a chant from vocalists Yolanda Robinson, Jolynda Phillips, and Christina Machado. It's from a thing my father made up while walking through his childhood neighborhood of 13th Ward New Orleans back in the 1940s, “Na-na ni-ta ho-ho. Left, right. Left, right.” Thirty years later, as an elementary school band teacher at McDonogh #15, he had us chant this whenever we marched in second line parades. It recalls the syllabic prayers of ancient languages used in modern dance songs like Mani Dibango's “Soul Makossa,” of which Michael Jackson borrowed for “Wanna Be Startin' Something.”  


The centerpiece of the single is my recitation of a poem I wrote back in 2006 in the aftermath of the flood commonly referred to as “Katrina.” It's called “The Egyptian Second Line.” The gist of the poem toys with the theory that somehow Africans submitted to slavery in an attempt to become better versions of themselves. After the ladies chirp the hook, I step away from the keyboards and embrace the instrument I'm most known for — the trumpet — and blow a few before we take it out. With this song, I am channeling the energy of the ancestors to help give Africa back to herself in the best way I know how, through the power of music. 


In New Orleans, a “second line” is the procession where we dance in the streets to music played by a brass band to celebrate either life or death. When I think about what an Egyptian second line looks like, I think of the imagery of that photo of Louis Armstrong serenading his wife, Lucille in front of the Sphinx — again Africans giving Africa back to herself.

昨年リリースしたデビューシングル「EP01」は、ここ日本を経由しヨーロッパ各地のビートシーンでも話題となり、瞬く間にその名前を知らしめたニュージーランドの若きビートメーカー／プロデューサー＜クリストフ・エル・トルエント＞、注目のセカンド・シングルはなんと、「ジャズ」。黒人音楽や実験音楽、電子音楽、ブラジル音楽の影響をつよく受け、彼が持つ音楽的な豊かさとヴィジョンがビートミュージックという枠を超え、これまでどのビートメイカーも思い描かなかった圧倒的な世界へと導く本作。現在のビートシーンが突入した新次元の表現のあり方を象徴的にあらわした作品と言えだろう。参加ミュージシャンにはニュージーランドのビートシーンの旗手、ジュリアン・ダインがドラムスにホーンにはFunkommunityとして活動するIsaac AesiliのWNアーティストが全面強力バックアップ、予想を遙かに越えたビートメーカーが描く現代進行形の「ジャズ」、絶対聴き逃すな！ アートワークはNujabesをはじめとするHydeout関連のジャケットも手掛ける、FJD（藤田二郎）による本作をイメージした幻想的で美しい世界観を描いたデザインを採用。

"...and all audible musical sound is given us for the sake of harmony, which has motions akin to the orbits in our soul, and which, as anyone who makes intelligent use of the arts knows, 
is not to be used, as is commonly thought, to give irrational pleasure, but as a heaven-sent ally in reducing to order and harmony any disharmony in the revolutions within us." Plato
