Lest We Forget What We Came Here To Do
by Sons Of Kemet
supported by 5 fans who also own “Blazing Horns”
Sax + Tuba + Drum set + ANOTHER Drum set? What's not to love, here? I inhaled the Sons Of Kemet discography after hearing Shabaka Hutchings sit in with the Art Ensemble of Chicago, where he blew the house away with this one solo. This band is a great vehicle for his playing: tuba and double-drums provide ample energy but don't occupy the same sonic space, letting him shine. "Play Mass" feels like an obvious choice, but when it hits that refrain it re-wires my brain a bit.

Smooth and virtuosic, uplifting jazz that soars and glitters when it's not grooving along in some heavy dub.
