Album Review: “Here Because Of Hope” – Ezra Collective

updated on Leave a Comment on Album Review: “Here Because Of Hope” – Ezra Collective

Ezra Collective dropped a new album! Let’s go. This is how the album opens up, and it’s read beautifully by Letitcia Wright – yep. Black Panther herself.  She approaches the reading with gravity and reverence, and why not? Imagine someone like Sir Ian McKellen or Dame Judi Dench doing a reading? She’s giving it emotion …

ANNA RAN – Vultures With Guilt Anna Ran · Vultures with Guilt To open the faves we have a really gentle track in 6/8 time and it’s beautiful! Bathed in reverb this has a prog rock ballad feel to it, and the dreamy sounds of guitars, drums bass and synths really help it along! This …

AROUND ABOUT DUSK- without you Around About Dusk · Without You This has such a World War II era jazz feel to it, none of the gloss that came later on, but the kind you’d expect in the background of a period drama. This could be playing in the background on a grainy gramophone, at …

AZU YUCHE – Weak Azu Yeché · Weak Azu Yeché opens the faves this week with something a little special.. This has the classic soul around it, I’d even go as far as to say this has neo soul vibes – it reminds me of D’Angelo with those guitar licks! Clean tone! Add to that …

Maxi Priest has landed with a track that goes classic in its style – you have the one drop beat, the horn section the layered harmonies, organ and electric piano rounding it out along with the guitar lick and bassline for you to groove on. This has summer written all over it and Maxi brings …

Single Review: “Listen” – Project Blackbird

updated on

Project Blackbird are back with a track that’s a slick bit of production! You have Ming’s vocals switching between melody and spoken word effortlessly. Given the fact that the lyrics are in poetic form that’s probably not an accident. I like the layers to the vocals, where there’s a deeper voice emphasising on certain words …

Single Review: “Money” – Ahmala

updated on

Well! This combines jazz, hip hop, neo soul, a touch of Motown and some gospel into this lovely track! There’s a flute to kick off proceedings over a bass that I’m suspecting is played live on the recording – it’s got some depth to it. Add to that a Rhodes piano and an upright piano, …
