Dexter Story - Wejene Aola ft. Kamasi Washington & Todd Simon (via The Fader) Groovy AF!

For his next release on Soundway Records, Los Angeles-based Dexter Story hooks up with long time friend and compatriot of music, the saxophonist, jazz composer, producer and band-leader Kamasi Washington. A fierce, rumbling electro Ethio-Funk groove provides the platform for an intense and powerful interplay between Washington on tenor sax and Todd Simon on trumpet. An instrumental cover version of Tilahun Gessesse's 1970s cut of the same name, it's Story's homage to the oppressed Oromo people of Southern Ethiopia. Backed on the flip by the one cut from Story's 'Wondem' long-player that did not make it to vinyl when the LP version was cut, Nia Andrew's sublime and atmospheric collaboration on Eastern Prayer will keep all those happy who grumbled at it's exclusion from wax first time around. This is a record that no lover of Ethio-Jazz, Afro-Beat or Funk should be excused for not owning.

ARTIST: QUANTIC TITLE: SPARK IT FEAT. SHINEHEAD CAT NO: TRU302 FORMAT: GREEN TRANSLUCENT 12” VINYL (+ DL) / DIGITAL SINGLE LABEL: TRU THOUGHTS RELEASE DATE: 17TH MARCH (US & JP) / 27TH APRIL (UK & ROW) Quantic’s acclaimed ‘Magnetica’ album keeps on turning up great singles, and the fifth track to demand its own release is “Spark It” feat. Shinehead. Out 27th April (Except in US & Japan: 17th March) this effervescent dancehall-inflected cut sees Quantic’s impeccably authentic production combining with the charismatic flow of reggae legend Shinehead, who hooked up with Will “Quantic” Holland in LA, when they both happened to be visiting the city, for a one-off recording session. In addition to the original LP version, this covetable single - released on translucent green 12” vinyl, in a nod to the herb that’s getting sparked - brings an exclusive Quantic Dub of “Spark It” plus a pair of killer remixes from Ghost Writerz and Ed West, representing the New Wave of Sound System Culture coming through via Tru Thoughts' freshly launched Sharp And Ready platform. [And the promo includes a snappy Radio Edit.] The digital single (and vinyl download card) also features a bonus cut: “Painting Silhouettes (Todd Simon’s Painting Flugelhorns Edit)”, a horn-led reimagining, by celebrated trumpeter and arranger Todd Simon, of Quantic’s last single. ‘Magnetica’ came out in May 2014 to widespread acclaim for its diverse combination of global sounds and collaborators, all tied together by Holland’s fine production. Major features in The Guardian, and elsewhere, added to heavy radio presence across the world including a Quantic BBC 6Mix show and a live NPR session which the station named as one of its favourites. Each single has illuminated another of the adventures behind the LP. The most recent, the English folk-infused “Painting Silhouettes”, gained heavy daytime radio support as well as a primetime interview for Holland on the Steve Lamacq show. Lauded as a highlight of SXSW ‘14 in the festival’s official publicity, Quantic returns to Austin in 2015; he recently headlined Tru Thoughts @ The Forum, London, as part of a tour, and heads off for an extensive US DJ tour – exclusively playing his beloved ‘45 format - in March. www.quantic.org #whatI'mlisteningto #thumbsup
