Label: 22a
Release Date: 30th October
Oz jazz funk fusion bass supremo Horatio Luna hitting that sweet spot that lies between kncukle-bitingly good jazz fusion jams and dancefloor ready cosmic disco bangers, whilst feeling full of life as a live performance. Elite stuff if you're down with top tier playing.
Ciccin (pronounced Chich-in) captures Horatio Luna at the intersection of jazz
fusion, broken beat, house and hip-hop - a record grounded in the sound of
Melbourne/Naarm's underground jazz scene
Led by Luna's elastic bass playing, the album is loose, raw and deeply groove-driven,
with the spontaneity of a live jazz session meeting the rhythmic energy of the club.
Across ten tracks, Tuff Minimal on drums, On- Ly on keys and Hugo Turudia on
saxophone join Horatio Luna, with the quartet moving freely between tightly locked
grooves and open improvisation.
Engineered, produced and mastered by Nick Herrera, Ciccin captures the warmth and
human interplay at the centre of Horatio Luna's approach to "Jazzy House". Limited
edition pressing of 300 copies on black vinyl
"This record really encapsulates everything I love about Jazz Fusion and everything I
love about the scene in Australia. Covering Hip Hop, Broken Beat, House and
Electronica, it's loose, it's groovy, it's gritty and the musicianship on display is pretty
remarkable." - Somewhere Soul
