STR4TA - Vision 9

Pre-order the album 'Aspects': https://str4ta.lnk.to/aspects_album​

Long time friends and collaborators, Gilles Peterson and Jean-Paul “Bluey” Maunick initiate a Brit-Funk revival. “The idea of the project was to capture that raw, moment to moment sound,” Maunick says, drawing a contrast to the touches of refinement he and his peers have acquired in the years since. In its early days, the Brit-funk sound – and the London jazz-funk milieu it grew out of – was rooted in raucous live shows, rivalling those of the punk bands in that same period. Recalling his role in the process, Peterson says he was the one making sure things didn’t get too polished. “I was there at the back, telling them, no, leave it like that, cut it there, or just use that first take,” he says.

‘Vision 9’ is available on digital download only on all DSPs this Friday 19th March, with the full ‘Aspects’ album scheduled for release on March 26th 2021 on Brownswood Recordings.
