Our Take

Herbie Hancock's "Sunlight" album is a cosmic journey through the funky, futuristic soundscape of 1978. Pioneering jazz fusion maestro Hancock takes us on a sonic adventure that's as dazzling as a disco ball on a starry night.

From the moment the opening track "I Thought It Was You" hits your ears, you know you're in for a treat. The infectious groove and soulful vocals draw you in like a magnet, and before you know it, you're dancing like no one's watching.

But it's not all about the funk on "Sunlight." Hancock showcases his virtuosity on the keys with complex, mesmerising compositions like "Come Running to Me" and "Sunlight." Each note is like a brushstroke on a canvas, painting a picture of a world where rhythm and melody collide in perfect harmony.

And let's not forget the production on this album – it's a masterclass in layering instruments and creating a lush, immersive sound. The synths shimmer and sparkle like a disco ball, while the basslines thump and throb with an infectious energy.

In conclusion, "Sunlight" is a timeless classic that deserves a place in every music lover's collection. So grab your headphones, hit play, and let Herbie Hancock take you on a musical journey through the stars. Trust us, you won't regret it.

Born in Chicago in 1940, Hancock quickly made a name for himself as a prodigious pianist, earning a scholarship to study at the prestigious Juilliard School of Music at the age of 11.

Hancock's music is a heady blend of jazz, funk, and electronic music, with his signature blend of harmony and rhythm creating a sound that is both innovative and timeless. Tracks like "Chameleon" and "Watermelon Man" showcase his ability to fuse disparate musical elements into a seamless whole, while his collaborations with artists like Joni Mitchell and Stevie Wonder demonstrate his versatility and creativity. But Hancock is more than just a musician – he is also a tireless innovator and educator, constantly pushing the boundaries of technology and creativity in his pursuit of musical excellence. From his pioneering work with synthesizers in the 1970s to his recent experiments with virtual reality and artificial intelligence, Hancock is always looking towards the future, eager to explore new frontiers in music and technology.
