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 - Montreux Sunrise

"Onda" is something of a lazy sunshine classic; a perfect example of laidback Brazilian jazz-funk that blends a samba sensibility with distinct soul, funk and disco influences. The original single by Brazilian composer-turned-artist Genival Cassiano dos Santos, has long been an in-demand item for Disco and Balearic DJs. 

For this edit we worked with our Brazillian pals Fatnotronic adding some extra percussion, an acid line, and some new textures to the already awesome original.

It first appeared on our "Stir It Up" mixtape and Fatnotronic's Diplo & Friends BBC Radio1 mix. Soon it will see a vinyl release on Chit Chat's "Brazilian Edits" series Volume 1. Available October 2014 via Chit Chat Records.
