Watch the Video for “Pheonix”, the Title Track off Javier Santiago’s New Album

August 30, 2018 By Anthony Dean-Harris

I have extremely glowing praise for keyboardist Javier Santiago's album, Phoenix (which I'm feeling confident that it's one of my favorite albums of the year). So it brings me joy to continue to hype this modern fusion fantasy with Santiago's video of the live recording for the title track at Berkeley's Fantasy Studios.

Diaspora, the second album of trumpeter Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah's Centennial Trilogy of albums he's releasing this year, is softer than its predecessor, Ruler Rebel. It's warmer, more somber, more spacey a collection of songs, as if these songs and the extra time between notes, a less is more approach here, is meant to depict the actual African Diaspora, a dispersal of … [Read more...]

Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah – ‘Ruler Rebel’

March 31, 2017 By Anthony Dean-Harris

Since time perpetually moves forward, all movement is technically forward movement. Everything is a form of progression. Experience gives texture to signature, though the elements of signature -- those attributes that define the outward expression of persona -- remain fundamentally intact because the everlasting battle of nature versus nurture will always end up in some sort of … [Read more...]
