Last Summer we were blessed by this incredible project Keleketla! which is an international collaboration project by musicians from the UK and South Africa. The album was recorded during sessions in London and Johannesburg.
We keep on receiving good vibes with this album. Incredible influences can be heard here. A perfect blend of Jazz, electronic and African folk. Just the thing we needed.
The German label Tramp Records released this 4 parts compilation gathering an international roster of Jazz artists & bands. With many live recordings capturing the magic of a stage performance. The selection of music is raw, deep and spiritual to use their own words. They did us the honor to include Organic Pulse Ensemble in volume 4. Please check out the project directly via Tramp rec.
Absolutely wonderful music on the new album by the Japanese band Ajate! Alo is combining African music, Jazz, Dance and traditional Japanese festival music “Ohayashi” to result into an incredible piece of work. Filled with positive vibes and merrymaking music that will take you on a festive and dancing spirit. The album was release via the Parisian imprint 180gr.

Hailing from San Francisco, the West Coast jazz maverick Idris Ackamoor is joined by The Pyramids for this incredible album titled Shaman! that will take you on a transcending spiritual journey. The album presents a powerful tale of inner peace, self discovery, and connecting with the world, people and natural elements. Without a doubt one of the best albums of the year. Masterfully composed, recorded and directed the project comes like a ray of light in a dark place that was the year 2020. Released by the Londonian label Strut, which is in line for label of the year once again dropping gems after gems.
For this amazing project Koichi Sakai & Afla Sackey joined together to bring us their positive energy and vibes. Perfectly recorded and mixed the work of the multi instrumentalists is just splendid. The project is brought to us via the Londonian label Olindo Records.
