Our Take

British jazz sensation Nubya Garcia has once again shown us she's not here to play with her latest album, Source. Bursting with vibrant energy and a seamless fusion of genres, Garcia effortlessly takes the listener on a musical journey that is as adventurous as it is entrancing.

From the moment the first track, "Pace," kicks in with its infectious groove and hypnotic saxophone melodies, you know you're in for a wild ride. Garcia's talent as a composer and arranger is on full display here, as she effortlessly blends elements of jazz, funk, and Afrobeat to create a sound that is uniquely her own. The result is a collection of songs that are as dynamic and unpredictable as they are incredibly groovy.

Tracks like "The Message Continues" and "Stand With Each Other" showcase Garcia's ability to craft intricate arrangements that never feel overly complicated or pretentious. Instead, each song unfolds organically, drawing the listener in with its infectious rhythms and soulful melodies. And let's not forget Garcia's incredible skill as a saxophonist - her solos are nothing short of electrifying, showcasing both her technical prowess and emotional depth.

In short, Nubya Garcia's Source is a must-listen for any fan of contemporary jazz music. With its infectious grooves, dynamic compositions, and stellar musicianship, this album solidifies Garcia's status as one of the most exciting and innovative artists on the scene today. So do yourself a favor and give it a spin - you won't be disappointed.
