Примечание: More Energy Fields, Current" is a definitive new peak in the recorded continuum of prolific producer/percussionist Carlos Ni?o. Featuring contributions from more than a dozen exciting voices in the creative music constellation of Los Angeles (of which Ni?o’s has been a central force for over 2 decades), including Sam Gendel, Nate Mercereau, Jamael Dean, and Jamire Williams, the album collects 10 pristine gems of collaborative communication helmed by the Southern Californian sage, elegantly presented in his unique “Spiritual, Improvisational, Space Collage” style. Tracklisting 01. Pleasewakeupalittlefaster, please... 02. The World Stage, 4321 Degnan Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90008 03. Nightswimming 04. Now the background is the foreground. 05. Thanking The Earth 06. Salon Winds 07. Ripples, Reflection, Loop 08. Togetherness 09. lasos 79 ‘til Infinity 10. Please, wake up. The album is ripe with “ambient” passages that function like open portals between moments of consonance and clarity, and epic post-hip hop opuses like the heavy/heady “Thanking the Earth.” But even in the occasional absence of drums, there is a powerful pulse implicit in the program’s frequency of consciousness. It’s a testament to Ni?o’s foundations as a DJ. His distinct ability to craft a kinetic, cinematic sonic experience from dozens of independent, often rhythmically-ambiguous improvisational memories is more fluently displayed on More Energy Fields, Current than anything we’ve heard from him to date. It resonates, lucidly, with the way Ni?o’s mentor Iasos – who is known to the world as an original founder of New Age music – has described his work: "Real Time Interactive Imagination, Flow Texturization." On More Energy Fields, Current, Ni?o immerses us in the watery depths of his world, spiriting us like a submarine through exotic nether-leagues of untouched sound. And when we arrive at the final, book ending piece “Please, Wake Up.” (an extended version of the opening theme, featuring saxophonist Shabaka Hutchings), it’s like a return, safely to shore. In addition to Classic Black vinyl and CD, a limited-edition Water Spirits color vinyl version of More Energy Fields, Current is available to indie retailers only, for the first pressing only. The Black vinyl and the Water Spirits color vinyl both come in a deluxe reverse-board gatefold jacket with painted pockets, glossy insert card, obi strip, and dome-patterned inner-sleeve. www.intlanthem.com
