CRUISIC - JAZZ CARNIVAL

MUSIC FOR DREAMS welcome you to the sundrenched soul-funk palace of SANTINO SURFERS.

'Santino Surfers' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

This much awaited debut album masterminded by Danish Jonas Krag delivers nine tracks of lusciously wrought guitar sweetness traversing soul, jazz, funk and rock territory. Packed with sundrenched atmosphere and top-notch craft.

For Jonas Krag, the guitar has become something of a prosthetic limb. Spanning a twenty-year career, he has produced, written and played music with a wealth of artists on the Danish pop and rock-scene. Along the way, sketches of something more personal began to collect in his mind and with Santino Surfers these ideas have now crystallized into a fully-fledged artistic language.

What smolders beneath this music is an unabashed aural indulgence. The sound is luscious, warm and melodically rich from end to end. Nimble riffs and squirming solos arranged effortlessly around the rippling drums.

Take the gorgeously flowing structures of ‘Sunrise Swell’, the gentle psychedelia of ‘Who Ordered Fish’, the waxy 80’s-infused coolness of ‘Late Night Neon’ or the sprawling solo pageantry of ‘Three Corners One View’.

Set to ignite dance floors and elevate spirits worldwide: "Umoja (Joaquin's Sacred Rhythm Dub)" is New York City house music royalty Joaquin Joe Claussell’s rework of the title track from Italian jazz maestro Nicola Conte’s latest album Umoja.

Claussell’s trademark brand of deep, afrofuturist house combines with the spiritual jazz dance magic of Conte’s original for an extended mix of ecstatic club music, teasing the wider release of Nicola Conte - Umoja (Joaquin Joe Claussell’s Sacred Rhythm Music & Cosmic Arts Dubs): 10 tracks of comprehensive rearrangements - featuring additional percussion, guitars, keyboards, synthesizers and drum programming - whereby Claussell excavates the source music, re-recording many of its parts under the auspices of his Sacred Music & Cosmic Arts banner.

Claussell's collaboration with Nicola Conte and Far Out Recordings helps mark the label’s 30th anniversary, as Claussell joins fellow producers such as Theo Parrish, Ron Trent, Kenny Dope and 4hero in remixing music from the label’s catalogue.

Nicola Conte - Umoja (Joaquin Joe Claussell Sacred Rhythm Music & Cosmic Arts Remixes) releases on double vinyl LP, CD and digitally on 28th June 2024 on Far Out Recordings.

Len Leise Edits (LL001)
Limited edition edits. Side A 'Stars for Jorge' turned into more of a remix and the B side 'Desperado Dining' is much simpler in execution. These started as edits for me to play out a couple of years ago. But due to a few requests I thought i’d give a them a press. I’ve only pressed 150 of these. All hand numbered.

Out at the end of May.

If ever a record called be called a lost masterpiece then this record more than deserves that epithet. First released on an obscure French label in the 1970's it might have sunk further into obscurity and left no trace of it's passing but somehow a handful of copies turned up in various Jazz shops in London where it was snapped up by DJ Paul Murphy who was then playing to the embryonic jazz dance scene, based at the very first Jazz Room club: The Horseshoe in London's Tottenham Court Road, a decaying, seedy, sticky carpeted old West End ballroom that had seen better days. This and a select few records in a similar vein were being played to an appreciative audience who demanded tough raw percussive rhythms overlaid with some furious jazzy soloing and whenever this record hit the turntable it left even the most demanding groover sated.

It's a really fantastic collection from this barely known reedman and his excellent band which also features a guest appearance by American Legend Horace Parlan who is best known for his Afro-Cuban session "Headin' South" on Blue Note Records.

Superbly produced by drummer Peter Schmidlin, who has conjured up a spiritual modal mixdown of Afro-Cuban & Jazz extended percussive workouts that are uncompromising in their groove and which manage to sound both timeless and modern. The record is being re-released with the original striking artwork, guaranteed to be a talking point.
