Opis wydawcy:
Shabaka, artysta najbardziej znany jako saksofonista i lider grup Sons of Kemet i The Comet Is Coming, prezentuje swój solowy album "Perceive its Beauty, Acknowledge its Grace", który ukazuje się za pośrednictwem wytwórni Impulse! Na albumie, Shabaka skupia się głównie na fletach i łagodniejszych instrumentach dętych drewnianych, dlatego na głównym singlu "End of Innocence", usłyszymy Shabakę grającego na klarnecie. W utworze udział wzięli Jason Moran (fortepian), Nasheet Waits (perkusja) i Carlos Niño (perkusja).
Po odłożeniu saksofonu i skupieniu się na fletach, "Perceive its Beauty, Acknowledge its Grace" jest w pewnym sensie debiutanckim albumem, który równocześnie jest ponownym przedstawieniem artysty. To album pełny inspiracji płynących z doświadczeń, które Shabaka zdobył w ciągu swojego życia i kariery. Dzięki udziałowi na płycie André 3000, Esperanzy Spalding, Mosesa Sumneya, Brandee Younger, Floating Points, Laraaji, Miguela Atwooda-Fergusona, Saula Williamsa, Elucid i innych, "Perceive its Beauty, Acknowledge its Grace" jest wielką artystyczną deklaracją Shabaki, niemożliwą do zaklasyfikowania do określonego gatunku i bezkresną w swojej odkrywczej ciekawości.
Editor's Info:
Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace is the solo debut studio album of London jazz musician Shabaka Hutchings, working under the name Shabaka. It was released by Impulse! Records on 12 April 2024. The album was preceded by two singles, "End of Innocence" and "I'll Do Whatever You Want".
The album follows Hutchings's hiatus from the saxophone and the end of his bands Sons of Kemet and the Comet Is Coming, and sees him focusing on different types of flutes, including the shakuhachi and the svirel, as well as the clarinet.
The album was recorded in Van Gelder Studio in 2022. Hutchings shared producing duties with Dilip Harris, and brought in a long list of collaborators including his own father Anum Iyapo, André 3000, Laraaji, and Floating Points. Musically, it focuses on jazz and new age music. Critical reception for the album was positive, highlighting the boldness of Hutchings's shift in style.
Hutchings announced the album on 28 February 2024, set for a release on 12 April by Impulse! Records. On the same day, he released its lead single, "End of Innocence", along with a music video directed by Phoebe Boswell. "End of Innocence" sees Hutchings playing the clarinet, with a band consisting of pianist Jason Moran, drummer Nasheet Waits, and percussionist Carlos Niño.
The second single, "I'll Do Whatever You Want", was released on 21 March. Hutchings cowrote the song with Laraaji and Floating Points. It features Hutchings on shakuhachi, André 3000 on drone flute, Laraaji's wordless vocals, Floating Points on Rhodes Chroma synthesizer and vibraphone, Esperanza Spalding and Tom Herbert on bass, Dave Okumu on guitar, Marcus Gilmore on drums, and Niño on percussion. Hutchings said the song is "about surrender and the intimate space we go to within the grasp of possession. Other musicians on the record include Moses Sumney, Brandee Younger, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Saul Williams, Lianne La Havas, and Elucid.
Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace is Hutchings's solo debut studio album, following his 2022 solo EP Afrikan Culture, which also centered Hutchings's woodwind play. The titles of both releases are connected; in Hutchings's words, they're mean to be read as "Afrikan Culture, comma, Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace", with his next album being "the next sentence in a long form poem that encapsulates, hopefully, all the solo records of my career. The song names on the album were extracted from a poem written for the album.
