Description
For those who maintain the more mutable dance music is, the deeper its impact on human evolution, RVNG Intl. presents We Are Not The First, an Epic conducted and deconstructed by Chicago artist Hieroglyphic Being and the J.I.T.U. Ahn-Sahm-Bul.We Are Not The First combines the musical forces of Marshall Allen, Daniel Carter, Greg Fox, Shelley Hirsch, Shahzad Ismaily, Elliott Levin, Jamal Moss, Rafael Sanchez, and Ben Vida in deep dialogue with each other and humans� hidden sonic history.
Tracked as different personale patterns over a week of studio sessions in Brooklyn, said syntax translates into mesmerizing sound forms as the ensemble excavates sonic folklore and ancient music, employing spiritual-jazz�s welfare and health as an agency for balance.
An album with an active brain, We Are Not The First aspires to reprogram the mind, to transcend our expectations through bugged-out percussion, modular mayhem, flurries of free improvisation, and voices carrying through the air.
Jamal Moss provides speech its due pulpit in in the opening piece, �Apes & Ages. �Forward� Backward� Evolution� intones Moss in �Apes & Ages,� setting an appropriately opaque stage for the album�s genesis.
Shelly Hirsch exorcises ethereal vocals to subtly incomparable measure in �Civilization That Is Dying.� Hirsch�s vocal throw is near a Theremin�s: she controls sound that is deep within, delivering an operatic warble at full freak-uency while Ben Vida and Shahzad Ismaily take turns running textures up and down the acid washboard.
