The trio called on some of their closest friends and collaborators, BADBADNOTGOOD touring member Felix Fox-Pappas (keys) and a few key-players in the Toronto jazz scene including Kaelin Murphy (trumpet), Juan Carlos Medrano (percussion) and LA musician Tyler Lott (guitar), for an intensive and productive one-week of recording at Valentine Studios in Los Angeles in February 2024.

As the trio sifted through the weeks’ worth of material, it was clear that three distinct moods emerged, a deeper reflection of where the musicians are within their own personal lives, along with the state of the wider world: Chaos, Order and Growth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"XL","offers":[{"title":"Double Vinyl LP","offer_id":48490309714243,"sku":"RPT-01411","price":25.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/1601\/8499\/files\/a63faf49b41cd08670025b10c98adfb1.png?v=1729704264"},{"product_id":"ornette-coleman-friends-and-neighbors","title":"Ornette Coleman - Friends And Neighbors","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is an unusual album in the catalogue of Ornette Coleman, and one that passes by most critics.

This set is the perfect companion to last year's career highlight ‘From The Source”, which saw the band condense the multiple stylistic aspects of their sound into an awe-inspiring 47 minutes. Represented here are key cuts from that album – including the sidelong 7-part epic ‘Visions of a New Horizon” - as well as a few fan favorites such as ‘Red Sun in June” from the band's Summer Sessions series, which has never previously been released in a live version. In this rendition the band let themselves get carried away, riding on the energy of the room, soaring into jammy Grateful Dead territory. Elsewhere the band explores jazzy, improvisatory group interplay (The Spot) and get as heavy as they can (Soledad, Boozehound). Getting carried away is what Causa Sui are all about when playing live, and that mentality is captured in entirety on this set. Mixed and mastered by Jonas Munk from a multitrack soundboard recording.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"El Paraiso","offers":[{"title":"LP+10’ Eco Mix Random Coloured Vinyl","offer_id":52117507965251,"sku":"RPT-03773","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/1601\/8499\/files\/79b63297e60832f6c73a986c526df8a0.png?v=1736247617"},{"product_id":"tubby-hayes-splonge-an-introduction-to-tubby-hayes","title":"Tubby Hayes - Splonge!

We are now delighted to shine the spotlight on virtuoso saxophonist, flautist, vibraphone player and composer, Tubby Hayes, with a new LP entitled 'Splonge! An Introduction To Tubby Hayes'. Compiled by filmmaker, author and passionate Tubby Hayes fan Mark Baxter, this collection brings together ten tracks originally recorded for the Fontana label between 1961 and 1969, in a bid to answer the question, \"Where do I start?\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Decca","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":52317290529091,"sku":"RPT-03965","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/1601\/8499\/files\/e2c73a340945b6c02d881704f7867495.png?v=1737542390"},{"product_id":"femi-kuti-journey-through-life","title":"Femi Kuti - Journey Through Life","description":"\u003cp\u003eFemi Kuti’s 'Journey Through Life' marks a deeply personal chapter in the Afrobeat legend’s career.

Revisiting old tracks with fresh perspectives and producing entirely on his own for the first time, the album captures Femi’s journey as an artist, activist, and father.

Exercising their stylistic curiosity and versatility, they’ve expanded upon this foundation on their new 11-song long player for Colemine Records. Recorded between late 2021 and early 2024 at The Kitchen II in their home base of Lemon Grove, California, SFSE steer their “introspective party music” into fresh sonic realms. While their breakbeat-heavy brand of funk-soul-jazz is still the cornerstone of their sound, as displayed in tunes such as “Makin’ Moves,” “The Grifter,” and “Don’t Trip,” they’ve begun to take more and more cues from library music labels such as KPM Music, spiritually-leaning jazz labels such as Tribe \u0026amp; Black Jazz Records, and exotica-adjacent jazz artists such as Cal Tjader and Dorothy Ashby. Now leaning more into the “introspective” part of their sound, particularly on “Mother Earth,” “Freddie,” and the title track, they evoke the spirits of Freddie Hubbard, Phil Ranelin, Wendell Harrison, Bubbha Thomas, Chester Thompson, and even Cannonball Adderley at his headiest \u0026amp; most cosmic (listen to Adderley’s Soul Zodiac \u0026amp; Soul of The Bible albums for reference). “Corporatocracy” takes it a step further with an extended tabla solo, which floats in and rides the percussive wave before kicking into its funk-driven, modal vibe. With their current lineup of: Tim Felten on keys, Jake Najor on drums, Omar Lopez on bass, Kiko Cornejo Jr. on conga \/ percussion, Aquiles “Lito” Magana on guitar, Wili Fleming on trombone, Sheryll Felten on percussion, Jesse Audelo \u0026amp; Travis Klein on saxophone \u0026amp; flute, SFSE maintains their commitment to keeping it funky but dares to go where they haven’t gone before and, as a result, breaks intriguing new ground in their overall sound.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Colemine Records","offers":[{"title":"Maroon Vinyl LP","offer_id":52598032105795,"sku":"RPT-04946","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/1601\/8499\/files\/46b479e1e34e92e28d5eb639c00573ea.png?v=1739874828"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.recordplant.co.uk\/collections\/jazz.oembed?page=4","provider":"Record Plant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
