Award-winning Jazz Pianist Marc Cary debuts on Ibadan with a career boosting 12”.

Showcase for brilliant young talent Marc Cary, whose amazing jazz-oriented piano performance is backed here by a simple chord modulation, flute and sax. At the time, Cary was an up-and-coming musician already well on his way to achieving recognition for both his stunning solo work and his collaborations with the likes of Abbey Lincoln and Betty Carter. Enthusiastic cross-fertilization of musical styles and cultures being a strong part of Cary’s own vision, he was the ideal choice for this record, fusing dance rhythms with his distinctive signature jazz sound. Shortly after the release of Indigenous Music, Cary won Billboard’s award for best new jazz artist in 2000.

Produced by: Marc Cary for Cary Out prod.
Executive producer: Jerome Sydenham

Marc Cary: Steinway Piano, Fender Rhodes
YC Laws: Flute
Ron Blake: Alto Sax

Marc Cary - Indigeneous People (Original)

Another smash hit - with some brilliant vocal acrobatics added by Vera Mara - grace this beautiful percussion-spiced and string-laden journey into deepness. 

Sydenham & Claussell, team up again for another excursion into organic House. Both letting the spirits of their ancestors from maternal and paternal sides channel through their consciousness to invigorate their productions with a true spiritual essence. A collaboration that results in the namesake, 'Je Ka Jo' - an obvious derivative of their names, - combined with the vocal talents of Vera Mara. 

A short movie with the title, "The Making Of ‘Je Ka Jo’ ", would have been quite easy to produce provided a camera was lurking about in the Axis Studios in NYC. 11 artists participated in this production, which would have made the studio busier than a New Jersey DMV. The, (Crazy Vocal Mix) features all of those artists involved with a final mix from Jerome and Joe that would have gone on long after the cameras stopped rolling. 

As the name would suggest, the (Drums of Passion Mix), sheds the vocals, strings, violin and bass guitar in favor of a full on jungle navigated percussion workout. Clearly a useful tool inspired by the rhythms of the original, through the organic drumming. 

Back to basics, is the motto with, ‘Je Ka Jo (Original Vocal Mix)’. Traditional percussion with less dramatization and a more conventional mixing techniques, with the vocal as the focus, while the instruments each fill their respective space in the back ground of the frequency range.

Joe Claussell - Je Ka Jo feat. Vera Mara (Crazy Vocal Mix)

Joe Claussell presents some of the finest examples of Spiritual House music infused with the performances of some of the most multi-cultural, talented and experienced musicians.

Joe Claussell delivers a critically acclaimed compilation that looks beyond national boundaries and draws from a global music community. Claussell and production partners Jerome Sydenham and Kerri Chandler, imbue their 4/4 electronic house beat with the melodic work of top world music and jazz musicians. Brazilian vocalist extraordinaire, Vera Mara, adds delicate phrasing to "Je Ka Jo"; Flutist, Jay Collins, delivers a poignant message with his bamboo flute on "Git Wa"; Nigerian producer Dele Sosimi and his Gbedu Resurrection band adds an Afrobeat slant to the record with "Gbedu 1"; Jazz pianist Marc Cary pens and produces "Marco Polo" (with a special Joe Claussell edit). "Language" elegantly represents the pinnacle in a growing acoustic dance music that moves from the club floor into the home.

“The Other Man” is a unique collaboration between up-and-coming young Finnish producer Janne Tavi – the flag-bearer of Ibadan’s next generation – and acclaimed Chicago house vocal legend Robert Owens.

This EP is a superb rare gem that bridges global distances and combines a broad range of influences. The result is lush layers of sound, relentless energy, and intricate piano riffs and stabs. Owens’ poignant vocals seal the deal on this new house classic, taking it to sublime heights. The vocal dub kicks the heat up a notch with Owens’ seductive vocals and Tavi’s stunning keys and arrangement.

On the B-side, New York house legend Kerri Chandler makes a long-awaited return on Ibadan. First up is a spirited vocal version with a dynamic bassline. Chandler follows it up with an instrumental take, pared down to a tool and keeping the infectious groove going with deep and satisfying flavor.

Janne Tavi @MILK, Bassoradio (2017-09-27)

Dekmantel   and   Worldwide   FM-affiliated   DJ   Esa takes  Daymé Arocena's  steady-swaying, lighters-in-the-air   moment   to   more   uptempo   territories.   Propped   up   by   an   ‘80s   drum   machine   bounce,   soft-dappled   synths swirl   around   an   extremely   well-executed   xylophone   melody.   As   a   set   of   remixes,   they   achieve   no   mean   feat:   flipping   a melancholy   ballad   to   an   all-out   party   banger.   On   Eleggua,   Esa   takes   a   more   esoteric   angle   –   a   slow-build,   synths-and-bleeps chugger,   Daymé’s   distinctive   exaltations   are   the   track’s   driving   force.   

This   3-track  12”   is   another   impressive   effort   from   the   South African   DJ   sure   to   feature   heavily   in   clubs   worldwide.

Out on Brownswood 10th of November 2017
