ELBOW GREASE 商品一覧

CIRCUS COMPANYの看板としての活躍は勿論、HERBERTのACCIDENTAL、MULE MUSIQ等でも強い人気を誇るサンフランシスコ異端児・DAVE AJUが10年ぶりにTHE INVISIBLE ART TRIOとコラボし大きな話題をさらったアルバム「GLOSSOLALIA」から続けて間髪入れずに新作コラボEPをリリース!!8年以上前に海外で始まった彼らのジャム・セッションをベースに作成されたオリジナルと付随する2バージョンで構成された1枚。ライブ感に溢れドライブするファンキー・ヴァイブス・ヒプノシス、多層的に切り込み躍動するエモーショナル・テック・ハウス!!Coming in blazing-hot off the heels of their very welcome reunion set for the recent Glossolalia LP, Dave Aju & The Invisible Art Trio are apparently out for no mercy here on their potent Elbow Grease debut for the label’s third offering. “Next 2 You” was a deep jam session-based composition started overseas some 8+ years back in an earlier incarnation, with the raw-edged flavors and voodoo feels of the OG underground era and has now been unearthed and blessed for pure dancefloor detonation by the everelusive LA-based musical squad.The A-side Original Mix is yet again an extended multi-layered sonic voyage of driving vibe-led hypnosis, loaded with rising modal chants, fiery free jazz horns, otherworldly percussion literally orbiting around a solid throbbing 909 framework, and grinding lowend funk pulsations via a sub-octave 303 acid line woven in at the core of the piece.The generous EG release recipe also gives us the lethally mixable, wetted-up, and straight to the percussive point B1 Stripped Dub version, as well as an endlessly unfolding beatless Reprise on the B2 primed for any DJ set moment in need of mesmerizing impactful bliss on the flip.The trio states this work was inspired by various concepts from the sci-fi futurism of VanderMeer’s Annhilation, field research on ancient Incan rituals, and of course the cosmic lineage of core spiritual jazz astral travelers such as our recently earth-departed Pharoah, along with respectful nods to the master teachers from the D. “Next 2 You” indeed.
