CHIP WICKHAM Love & Life EP 12" CLEAR
- 12"
EDYCJA LIMITOWANA - PRZEZROCZYSTY WINYL
Na nowej EP-ce brytyjski mistrz jazzu Chip Wickham kontynuuje wątki z ubiegłorocznego albumu "Cloud 10", prezentując piękny spiritual jazz, inspirowany uduchowionymi dźwiękami Yusefa Lateefa. Muzyka Chipa zawsze czerpała z szerokiego świata wpływów: od hip-hopu po Rolanda Kirka, od klasycznego funku po brytyjski jazz Tubby'ego Hayesa z lat 60-tych. Ale w "Love & Life" na pierwszy plan wysuwa się jego wspaniała gra na flecie, tworząc doskonały czteroutworowy, refleksyjny, spokojny jazz, który podnosi na duchu i inspiruje, a także charakterystyczny kawałek boppish soul jazzu - żwawy "Space Walk".

“Life is nothing without love. Love is the force that drives our journey in life. Life is love and love is life.”
UK jazz master Chip Wickham follows last year’s brilliant soulful long-player Cloud 10 with a deftly crafted, reflective EP of beautiful spiritual jazz influenced by the soulful sounds of Yusef Lateef. Chip’s music has always drawn on a broad world of influences: from hip-hop to Roland Kirk, and from classic funk to the ‘60s Brit-Jazz of Tubby Hayes. But Love & Life finds him foregrounding his wonderful flute playing, producing a perfect four-tracker of reflective, peaceful jazz that elevates and inspires as well as a trademark slice of boppish soul jazz – the jaunty Space Walk.
Elsewhere lead single Love & Life is a joyous jazz waltz with an uplifting, bouncing groove and Slow Down Look Around is introspective and intimate, featuring Chip’s signature flute with a beautiful solo from UK trumpeter Malcolm Strachan. Chip explains that the track presents “a big lesson for us to learn as the world changes around us with such speed. The technology changes but our human needs remain the same: peace, tranquillity and time to think.”
MOJO “Brighton everyman flits between between wild flute and emotional tenor sax"
Jazzwise “unfailingly excellent.”
Jazziz “A spiritual jazz call to prayer with a distinctly UK flavour”
