and that’s all! Hope everyone liked this little game. I always thought the blog absolutely free, in fact i don’t have any ads and i don’t have any paypal donate button, because i want this a place where you can find just good music (because the people download music but, and that’s what i’m trying to say to label and artist, the people also buy music, merchandise and goes to shows), i’m saying this because in future if i will have free subcriptions i will do other things like this, also i suggest to use premium accounts just if you can have them for free ;)

Info “Madlib Medicine Show #7: High Jazz”

Madlib Medicine Show #7: High Jazz


MADLIB MEDICINE SHOW #7: HIGH JAZZ

Pre-order for 3LP and CD.  Expected release date: July 27.

Madlib Medicine Show #7: High Jazz is an all-new Madlib jazz production. High Jazz, the name itself a tribute to the landmark jazz-fusion album released by Stanton Davis’s Ghetto Mysticism in 1976, shows a marked development in Madlib’s craft.

Since the introduction of Madlib’s Yesterdays New Quintet releases nearly a decade ago, the producer’s core group of musicians and collaborators (known collectively as “Yesterdays Universe”) has grown by the dozens.  The notoriously elusive, publicity-shy and anti-commercial ethic of the group has kept many of the recordings from every being released, while others have been pressed anonymously, kept within the group or distributed only among private collectors.

Among the newly released tracks on High Jazz are a Madlib, Karriem Riggins & James Poyser collaboration, the debut of groups Generation Match, The Big Black Foot Band, RMC, and a 15-minute live piece by Yesterdays New Quintet (recorded at a secret show in 2000).  The 15-track album runs a total of 61 minutes.

Limited edition 3-disc vinyl:  Madlib has collected an additional 30 minutes of music for the limited edition vinyl release of High Jazz.  These tracks are not available on the CD or digital release.  Album covers will be hand screened by Hit+Run with a design by Jeff Jank, and individually numbered. See photos below.

Album track list:

1. The Jackson Conti Band – Steppin’ Into Tomorrow (Prelude)
2. Generation Match – Electronic Dimensions
3. Jahari Massamba Unit – Pretty Eyes
4. The Kenny Cook Octet – High Jazz
5. Yesterdays New Quintet – Medley: Don’t You Worry Bout A Thing (Live At Spear for The Moondog)

Jyoti – Ocotea

null

Georgia Anne Muldrow’s next project is unlike anything she’s ever released. Georgia Anne Muldrow’s jazz persona is named is Jyoti – a Sanscrit word meaning “light”- and it is the name given to her from “the great and masterful ancestor” Alice Coltrane who was a family friend. Her first record composed as Jyoti is entitled “Ocotea“- the name of an aromatic wood that her mother had recently given her, and she told me that burning this wood is what sparked the inspiration for creating the “free-jazz” sound of the album. Entirely instrumental, the 9 track experience draws from an ocean of influences such as Hendrix’s Band of Gypsys, Swamini Truiyasangitanada’s Monastic Trio, Charlie Mingus, Eric Dolphy, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Henry Threadgill, Sun Ra, and Stevie Wonder – to whom she dedicates a track “Stevelander”. Ocotea is a new frontier for Georgia Anne Muldrow’s sonic discoveries. “Infused with experimental synthesizers that posses a pan-tonal sensibility, and melodies that soar about with raw musicianship!”

Tracklist

01. Black Mother
02. Psalm Of Rubble
03. Thread’s First Stiches
04. The Language Of The Flame
05. Unchanged Reverie
06. Stevelander
07. Captain’s Eye
08. Blessed Matches
09. Ocotea

RJD2 – Inversions Of The Colossus

null

Following upon the success of “The Colossus”, RJD2 returns with “Inversions of the Colossus”, a companion piece of its own unique nature. The “instrumental” album is a time honored tradition in hip hop that RJD2 has taken advantage of whenever possible – without an instrumental version of “Magnificent City”, there would be no Mad Men theme! However, “Inversions” is a new twist on the idea: in essence, all 7 of the vocal songs on “The Colossus” appear here sans vocals. The remainder of the album is made up of 7 new songs – 14 tracks in all! Ranging from banging dancefloor funk to extreme psychedelia, it follows a similar “no format” approach as “The Colossus” did. Yet another solid collection of classic RJD2.

Tracklist

01. The Perfect Occasion
02. Games You Can Win (Instrumental)
03. Liquid Luck
04. The Glow (Instrumental)
05. In 3’s
06. The Shining Path (Instrumental)
07. Crumbs Off The Table (Instrumental)
08. A Son’s Cycle (Instrumental)
09. A Moment Of Weakness

14KT – Nowalataz

null

Here it is… a project I unofficially had done since 2006. It started when James Yancey a.k.a. J Dilla passed that February. To cope with the death of my favorite producer, who I liked to call my unofficial “musical mentor,” I started making ‘donuts’ …uncontrollably. I never planned to release any of the material out of respect for Dilla & his craft. I’ve shared some of the music with others, in which they would repeatedly ask me to hear it, so I decided to put a little something together and make it official. JUST FOR YA’LL.

This is a collection of beats created about 3 years ago. Some ‘donuts’ style, some just around that era of 14KT beats. “Now & Laters” were always a favorite candy of mine. I used to go to Mindell’s Pharmacy in Ypsilanti back in the day and buy ALL of them. Sadly, I even stole change from my grandma’s (RIP) purse for them. They are addictive, yet fun to eat… something I found mutual when making music at the time. Ironically, I fell back in love with “Nowalataz” around this era (ask my homey Sarah “Merk Merk,” haha). Enjoy.

Teebs & Jackhigh – The Tropics EP

null

The Tropics EP is something quite different and something quite special. The seven track mini album is the product of an 18 month collaboration between LA based beatmaker Teebs and UK producer Jackhigh, and is already attracting serious praise.

Back in the day, London based Jackhigh had already been featured as 17 year old on the genre-defining Beatnicks EPs from Up My Alley label and started to get involved in collaborations, producing remixes and so on, while an equally young Teebs found himself living in LA with Flying Lotus and Samiyam for flatmates. As Teebs remembers it, Jackhigh put a snippet of a tune he liked on Myspace and Teebs asked him to send it over. “I flipped it, sent it back. He added strings, sent it back to me again. I flipped it again” And so it continued, in a slow organic way, loops becoming processed and degraded and altered and added to, and tracks slowly emerging.

Over time a total of seven tunes emerged. These tracks were produced in a unique way: they never existed as arrangements laid out in software on someone’s computer, only as a single stereo file, passed to and fro, and endlessly worked and tweaked and eroded.

Still early into 2010 The Tropics EP is a very different record and a sign of things to come: fresh, organic, mature, holistic, unified, and totally next level.

Swede:art – Emotional Colors

null

From boombap to boogie and beyond, the highly anticipated debut album from German wunderkind Swede:art has it all! Songs about sex on the airplane, robots, eternal life, linguistics and space rides are only the start. Influences from techno avantgarde and 90s hiphop melt into unorthodox funk, subbass staccatos, saw tooth wave attacks, bleep action in slow motion and more diabolic ingredients. In short, ‘Emotional Colors’ is a must for the passionate space traveler. Guest artists on the album include Duktus, Note, Pursuit Grooves, Stray, Blaktroniks, Caits Meissner and Comfort Fit.

The Roots – How I Got Over

null

To call it “long-awaited” or “eagerly anticipated” would be the understatement of the year – as hip-hop’s most daring pioneers the Roots release their 9th studio album (and third for Def Jam Recordings) on June 22nd, HOW I GOT OVER. The album, which takes its name from Clara Ward’s gospel classic (made popular by Mahalia Jackson), is the Roots’ first new release since joining Late Night with Jimmy Fallon for a full time gig as the show’s house band. Grammy Award winners the Roots characterize the songs on HOW I GOT OVER as “depicting the everyman’s search for hope in this dispiriting post-hope zeitgeist”. The lead single from the Roots new set will be “Dear God 2.0.” The track re-imagines the Monsters Of Folk song “Dear God” and features MOF members Yim Yames from My Morning Jacket, Conor Oberst and Mike Mogis from Bright Eyes and M. Ward.

HOW I GOT OVER also includes two appearances from Grammy-winning soul man John Legend: “Doin’ It Again” a re-working of his track “Again,” and “The Fire,” an original song written for the Roots’ 2010 Olympic concert performance.

The Roots and Legend have developed a strong musical bond, as the group has produced John’s entire upcoming release Wake Up, which shares the socially conscious themes of the “How I Got Over” set and is comprised of late sixties/early seventies covers.

Other guests on HIGO include Joanna Newsom on “Right On,” Phonte Coleman (Little Brother, The Foreign Exchange), Blu (Blu & Exile), Peedi Peedi , Mercedes Martinez, Icelandic alt-pop singer Patty Crash, newcomer Sugar Tongue Slim as well as long time Roots’ Crew members Dice Raw, Truck North and P.O.R.N.

14KT – The Golden Hour

null

Producer/MC and DJ 14KT has been working steadily as a member of Michigan hip hop collective the Athletic Mic League and the producing team of the Lab Techs! He’s been a big player in helping launch what looks to be a long and successful career run for Buff1 and has produced for plenty of other Michigan area artists. The mostly instrumental affair is full of breathtaking sample work and beautiful sonic ambiance that fills the voids between the drums. The Golden Hour, in medical terms, is apparently that last stretch to revive an ailing patient to a full recovery, which inspired 14KT to finally unveil his solo outing in search of his own meaning. It is very much in keeping with the unique sounds of the hip hop movement coming out of Detroit and greater surrounding areas like An Arbor as of late, it is also reminiscent of J-Dilla (not just throwing that out there either) and others leading by example like Black Milk. It should also be said that this is not the type of album you prefer to hear lyrics over while listening, because that would merely cheapen the effort into some kind of sales pitch for shopping beats. You can really feel 14KT speaking through the music here, which may sound cliche, but in this case it’s true.

Form by definition is the mode in which a thing exists, acts, or manifests itself. It is the foundation by which all things are perceivable in the physical realm. Our reality takes form as we visualize to manifest it. Once it is visualized it can be created physically. Becoming part in building our exterior existence as a reflection of what we are within; Life, Love, Creation.
