Our Take

Shabaka Hutchings is back with his latest offering, "Perceive Its Beauty. Acknowledge Its Grace" and boy, is it a wild ride. The album is a sonic journey through space and time, with Hutchings at the helm, guiding us through a mesmerising landscape of jazz, funk and Afrobeat influences.

From the funky grooves of "Street Scene" to the hypnotic rhythms of "Ori," Shabaka takes us on a musical adventure that is as thrilling as it is soulful. His saxophone playing is as fiery as ever, weaving in and out of the complex rhythms with effortless grace.

But what really sets this album apart is the sheer audacity of its ambition. Hutchings effortlessly blends genres and styles, creating a sound that is truly unique. Tracks like "Go See" and "Toten" are a testament to his talent as a composer and arranger, with their intricate arrangements and lush harmonies.

Overall, "Perceive Its Beauty. Acknowledge Its Grace" is a masterpiece of modern jazz music. Shabaka Hutchings continues to push boundaries and defy expectations, creating music that is both intellectually stimulating and fun to listen to. So sit back, relax, and let Shabaka take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Trust us, you won't regret it.
