‘Ashram Sun’, Surya Botofasina’s much-anticipated album follows his hugely acclaimed debut ‘Everyone’s Children’ and his first offering since his contribution to ‘New Blue Sun’ and global touring alongside André 3000. It is an ode to Surya’s upbringing and musical teachings in the tradition of Swamini Turiyasangitananda – aka Alice Coltrane, by the spiritual jazz colossus Herself, at Her Sai Anantam Ashram in California. ‘Ashram Sun’ is a deep listening, spiritual masterpiece with close collaborators Carlos Niño and Nate Mercereau, incl. contributions from the high priestesses of music Angel Bat Dawid, Mia Doi Todd, MidnightRoba and Radha Botofasina.

The incredible offering by visionary percussionist and Chicago legend Kahil El’Zabar and his Ethnic Heritage Ensemble, ‘Spirit Gatherer • Tribute to Don Cherry’. Joined by master vocal shaman Dwight Trible and the late, extraordinary multi-instrumentalist David Ornette Cherry, this is a powerful, spiritualised tribute to the profundity of Don Cherry’s contribution to universal musical and artistic culture, and an ode to one of the giants of twentieth century music.

Obscure, rare spiritual jazz, deep folklore and psychedelia sounds from the French ‘70s – ‘80s underground

‘Spirit of France’ celebrates the artists whose total desire ‘not to belong’ to a particular trend expanded their horizon by pushing the boundaries of creative music. Recording in caves during the full moon, or in the open air in Ibiza to celebrate the sun – with flutes, cromorne, darbouka and hurdy-gurdy, or with fascinating-sounding unusual instruments and with heavy influences from Indian, African, Arabic, Eastern and Malagasy cultures, that’s what makes this selection so unique.

The incredible, unique sounds of ‘Cosmic Nomad’ David Ornette Cherry’s ‘Organic Nation Listening Club – The Continual’! This is a mosaic of spiritual jazz, left-field electronica, Eastern, native and indigenous sounds for an immersive, deep listening experience. For his latest work, David Ornette Cherry is focused in continuing his father’s tradition – the legendary trumpeter, composer and spiritual world and jazz music pioneer Don Cherry, in encompassing his creative music approach and methods into healing, ancestral and futuristic soundscapes for the 21st century.

The debut album by the new LA-based ensemble led by the extraordinary jazz vocalist Dwight Trible. A genre-defying amalgamation of divine vocals, soul-stirring jazz, healing poetry, with a rich tapestry of African, MesoAmerican and North American indigenous percussion, intuitive improvisation and deeply spiritual music.

This supergroup, led by legendary vocalist Dwight Trible, forms of incredibly experienced and innovative musicians – such as Derf Reklaw, Pablo Calogero, John B. Williams, Christopher Garcia & Breeze Smith, taking you on a cosmic journey of spiritual improvisation and beyond!

The new spiritual jazz album by the Ethnic Heritage Ensemble, ‘Be Known Ancient/Future/Music’. Led by legendary Chicago percussionist Kahil El’Zabar, an artist in a league of his own, who’s acknowledged throughout the world as the leader in the vanguard of spiritual and afro-futuristic jazz.

Alongside El’Zabar on multi-percussion & vocals is Corey Wilkes on trumpet, Alex Harding on baritone sax and Ian Maksin on cello. This is beautiful Afro-centric spiritual jazz on the forefront of the current popular jazz scene. The Ethnic Heritage Ensemble’s music… “seeks to spark a time in which heightened sensibility and higher consciousness will universally be known”.
