Of The Earth/Limited Pink Vinyl

Description

Shabaka is widely regarded as one of the most influential musicians in the UK and a prominent figure in contemporary British culture. Entirely written, performed, produced, and mixed by Shabaka, Of The Earth marks a turning point in the artistic evolution of the British leader and multi-instrumentalist. While the previous album, Perceive its Beauty, Acknowledge its Grace (Impulse!), represented a departure from familiar forms and a shift towards flutes, calmness, and collective exploration, Of The Earth is an album of integration and embodiment. It establishes Shabaka as a singular instrumentalist-producer, synthesizing the dance-driven propulsion of his bands Sons of Kemet and The Comet Is Coming with the textured and breathing language of his recent solo work.
