Product Description
Welcome back!! Nightmares on Wax's first new album in 5 years is finally complete! A masterpiece that blends surprise and warmth! The gravitas of a career spanning over 20 years! Truly Feelin' Good! The wish behind this album, titled 'Feelin' Good'! "We want everyone to remember once again how much comfort music can bring to people!" Known as one of the most important artists on the prestigious Warp label, Nightmares on Wax's 90s releases 'Smokers Delight' and 'Carboot Soul' are still talked about as historical masterpieces, and their lo-fi funk album 'In A Space Outta Sound' (2006), which was a long-running hit in Japan, made them a global name. This album was produced in Ibiza, their current base of operations, with talented musicians gathered from all over the world. ?? From 'So Here We Are' (Trk.1), which grabs the listener's attention in the first 10 seconds of the intro, to 'Masterplan' (Trk.3), a trip-hop soul-based track featuring California folk singer Katie Gray, to the moving masterpiece 'Give Thx' (Trk.6), which even evokes the vibes of 70s Motown, and 'Eye (Can't See)' (Trk.7), which blends an extraordinary Latin groove and features the renowned singer Moses, who also plays in Zero 7. The track 'Om Sweet He' (Trk.10), which loops gathered percussion and Tibetan monk chants and sends them soaring into space, is magnificent! ?? This album brings together a stellar lineup, with Sebastian Studnizky, who also works as an arranger for Jazzanova, handling the diverse orchestration and strings, George's close friend Robin Taylor-Fifth on keyboards, and Wolfgang Haffner, a renowned jazz drummer in high demand in the jazz and fusion world who has also collaborated with Pat Metheny, also participating. *Includes liner notes (by Kentaro Kaneda) / Includes 1 bonus track / Domestic release
