Is it possible to fuse the sophisticated language of jazz with the earthy vibe of Jamaican rhythms? And to do so without one dominating the other, but rather as a true dialogue between equals? That is the challenge taken up by AMAIKA RUDE. An unprecedented encounter between jazz musicians and virtuosos from Bilbao’s ska/reggae scene, united by one obsession: to reinterpret Oliver Nelson’s legendary album, ‘The Blues and The Abstract Truth’, in a ska-jazz key.
‘The Ska and the Abstract Truth’ will be released on 28th November on 12-inch vinyl LP and will also be available on your favourite streaming and/or digital download platform.
You can now reserve your copy of ‘The Ska and the Abstract Truth’ at the Brixton Denda online shop.
