| | Description: | A new project by Chicago-based drummer/producer Makaya McCraven. An addendum to his critically-acclaimed 2018 release Universal Beings, which The New York Times said "affirms the drummer and beatsmith's position as a major figure in creative music," Universal Beings E&F Sides presents fourteen new pieces of organic beat music cut from the original sessions, prepared and produced by Makaya as a soundtrack to the Universal Beings documentary film. - .. SIDESAn addendum to Makaya McCraven's critically-lauded 2018 release, the 'Universal Beings E&F Sides' presents fourteen new pieces of organic beat music cut from the original sessions, prepared and produced by Makaya as a soundtrack to the 'Universal Beings' documentary film."Universal Beings E&F Sides" on CD by Makaya McCraven is a companion piece and deep expansion of his acclaimed "Universal Beings" project. Recorded with the same searching, boundary-pushing spirit, these "E & F Sides" dive further into McCraven's hybrid language of live improvisation and studio-based "organic beat music." Expect fluid drum work, thick bass lines, Rhodes textures and saxophone layers that move between spiritual jazz, contemporary beat culture and atmospheric soundscapes. Rather than presenting simple outtakes, this CD feels like a parallel universe to the original album: grooves are stretched, motifs are recontextualized, and subtle details from the sessions are brought into focus, creating an immersive listening experience that rewards both close attention and casual play-through.
Makaya McCraven is one of the most influential figures in contemporary jazz's new wave. Known for albums like "In the Moment" and "Universal Beings," he has gained international recognition for reshaping jazz through a producer's lens--looping, editing and sculpting live recordings into cohesive, forward-thinking albums. His work has drawn praise across jazz, indie and electronic circles, helping to connect club culture, hip-hop sensibilities and spiritual jazz traditions.
The CD edition offers rich, dynamic sound and a curated flow that highlights the narrative arc of these extended sessions, making it an ideal format for listeners who want to absorb the music as a complete journey.
International Anthem / Indigo stands for adventurous, artist-driven releases at the intersection of jazz, experimental music and modern soul. The label has built a strong reputation for nurturing boundary-pushing artists and presenting their work with great attention to sound, visuals and overall curation. With "Universal Beings E&F Sides," International Anthem / Indigo once again underlines its role as a key platform for progressive, genre-defying music that looks to the future while remaining rooted in improvisation and feeling. | | | No. of tracks: |
