Dog In Man

This feels like a nice time to share this unreleased track, as February 14th traditionally represents the beginning of spring, growth and flowers. The Day Of Love was originally March 12th... but Flowers became Love, and Love became Flowers.

Globetrotting Texan trio Khruangbin present the video for their new single ‘Friday Morning’. A song about “jumping into love,” ‘Friday Morning’ skips between laid back Isley Brothers-­esque vibes via delicate tempo changes into gentle hymnal passages.

On 26th January, Khruangbin will release their second album ‘Con Todo El Mundo’ on Night Time Stories. Continuing their world music pedigree, the band has expanded their global influences on this record from Thai funk to sounds of Spain and the Middle East, particularly Iran, from the 1960’s, 1970’s and beyond.  Khruangbin will embark on a tour of UK, Europe and North America in support of ‘Con Todo El Mundo’.

Brought to us by Ziggy Zeitgeist, drummer and percussionist of Melbourne’s outstanding ‘30/70’, the improv/dance music band known as Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange are a gifted creation fitting effortlessly within the nu-jazz neo-soul era. That being said, you’ll come to realise that the genre is secondary to the crafts(wo)manship, it's the energy conveyed by the musicians that means everything. Today we have the pleasure of premiering a track arranged and produced by the band, taken from ‘ZFEX Volume II’, the follow up of the May 2018 release. Ziggy is joined by Matt Hayes on bass and Lewis Moody on the keys, Javier Fredes on percussion, Erica Tucceri on woodwinds to bring us ‘Logan’s Run’ (yes, you may have watched the sci-fi classic). 

This number gathers pace through youthful twinkling keys, low-slung sultry bass, jungle influenced drums and percussion sounding as galactic as it does tribal. Creating pure transcendental soundscapes and grooves of refreshing expression, ZFEX showcase what it means to catch a vibe and if you remain open to their sonic elevation, you are sure to be moved as the music forces you to connect with yourself. ‘Volume II’ is a timeless instantly mesmerizing space you enter, where you are greeted by raw jazz-funk and the spirit of each musician flowing through live sounds. We can’t help but think of Alfa Mist, Mansur Brown, Yussef Dayes, Thundercat, Triforce and Kamaal Williams with this one, so if you’re a fan of those guys be sure to check this out. 

The raw sentimental sounds of ‘Logan’s Run’ form a story, an affair of the heart played out  arresting all our senses through its beautifully frantic sections and calmer rhythmic parts. We look forward to experiencing a live set from the band to witness them sharing pure love through their excellence. Its is no surprise that ZFEX had the pleasure of jamming on a Brownswood Recording Session, receiving love and support from Giles Peterson, Alexander Nut, Osunlade,  Byron the Aquarius and many more. Pre-order your experience here.

Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange - Logan's Run

Huw Marc Bennett creates a warm, deep, retro groove, the sound of sun kissed vinyl. He draws on Tim Maia, Augustus Pablo and Idris Muhammed as much as he does the Jazz scene and community he has found in South East London, with a streak of ‘Sain Records’ brand welsh phycyedlia running through the whole thing. 

Tressilian Bay started out as a long lost live session recorded at the  Total Refreshment Centre studios, featuring Chelsea Carmichael (Sax), Rosie Turton (Trombone) Shirley Tetteh (Guitar) Jake long (Drums) with Huw at the helm on bass and compositions. Huw utilised his human style of production and multi instrumentality seen in his project Susso (Soundway Record) as well as the glorious vocal contributions of Miryam Solomon, to mold these recordings in to this mature and emotional debut, with a subtle nod to hedonistic summer nights, whether spent on the glamorgan coast or the hot lewisham streets.

Ruby Rushton are back, unveiling a fresh limited 7" single for the South
London based 22a imprint. The Tenderlonious led quartet continue to hit new heights, recalling the spirit of their debut 2015 album ‘Two For Joy’, with two brand new, afro-tinged, jazz fusion gems.

‘Sun Khosi’ is a tribute to Tender’s father who spent many years in Nepal working as a Gurkha Officer. The name is taken from one of the most famous rivers in Nepal, which runs through the Himalayas. It translates to “River of Gold” and is an appropriate title for this uplifting, feel-good summertime tune. It’s also Tender’s first composition and recording to feature him playing the alto flute, which has a deeper, more mellow tone compared to the usual concert flute that he plays.

The b-side ‘Chrysalis’ composed by keys and synth bass maestro Aidan Shepherd, is inspired by the playing of pianist and British jazz legend John Taylor, who had something of an obsession with music in 3/4 time. ‘Chrysalis’ breaks into two distinct parts; kicking off with with Ruby Ruston’s signature tight, snappy melodies and driving groove, then reversing back into the bands carefree ‘Two for Joy’ sound of 2015, when the bass is given a rare chance to come to the forefront by joining the flute and trumpet melody. Herbie Hancock’s classic track ‘Butterfly’ has become a staple in the bands set, so the snappy melodies and driving groove of ‘Chrysalis’ represent the restless energy of the butterfly about to emerge from it's chrysalis.

These two new track’s are taken from the bands forthcoming album, their fifth in 5 years, due for release in November on 22a. Stay tuned x

Rest Your Head

It is our absolute pleasure to release this brand new track from Milano's DayKoda! We're really feeling this one!!

‘My Abstract Monkey’ is the first single selected from the upcoming album by the nu jazz musician and beat maker DayKoda. 

The young producer returns on the scene with a single that, in light of the recent global situation, will rise awareness against animal exploitation and deforestation. In particular, the profits form this single will be entirely donated to the WWF.

In tune with this theme, ‘My Abstract Monkey’ feels hazy and dreamlike; percussive hip-hop cuts, soulful atmospherics and highly skilled woodwind sequences. The track makes you swoon with its smooth and creamy vibe, something relatable to Stones Throw and Brainfeeder artists such as MNDSGN and Teebs. Special credits to the raw talent of the multi-instrumentalist Robohands, who features the track with an
effortless jazzy production.

The sound of this track floods your ears with greenery and
lush soundscapes, aiming at recreate that peaceful connection that used to endure between Human kind and nature.

@daykodamusic explores the fields between slow-mo beats, downtempo
and Nu Jazz by moving in an almost abstract way through dreamy textures and downtempo productions strongly influenced by jazz
and beat music.
