KORWAR, SARATHY	My East Is Your West	2CD	GEARBOX	GB 1549CD
$20.50$17.43 IN STOCK Off the back of Sarathy Korwar's much lauded Day To Day album comes the live album My East Is Your West -- a performance that takes the fusion of Indian classical music with the jazz tradition further than it's ever been before. Recorded live at London's Church Of Sound, the album is a homage to the great musicians of the '60s and '70s spiritual jazz movement, covering the likes of Alice Coltrane, Pharaoh Sanders, and Joe Henderson. Korwar plays alongside the UPAJ Collective, a group of highly-versatile musicians who share Sarathy's passion for jazz and Indian music and who have together managed to rebalance the cross-cultural relationship between "Western" and "Eastern" music. With every record Sarathy releases his music becomes more exploratory and insightful, delving into his personal influences, which also inspire much of the music in the jazz scene that surrounds him. At a time where UK jazz is being heralded for its progression, innovation and far-reaching appeal to people from varying backgrounds, My East Is Your West is an essential record that explores cultural and musical diversity in way that will continue to be relevant for years to come. "The classical musicians have a foot in improv; the jazz players get Indian music." --The Guardian, Contemporary Album Of The Month "A truly enriching listen." --Songlines

KORWAR, SARATHY	There Is Beauty, There Already	CD	OTHERLAND RECORDS	OTH 001CD
$14.50 LOW STOCK LEVEL Sarathy Korwar, genre-breaking drummer, producer and composer, announces the release of his seventh album, There Is Beauty, There Already, out on Otherland. Celebrating the melodic power of the drum ensemble, the album follows his 2022 Indofuturist manifesto KALAK with a deeply immersive longform suite of percussion-led compositions. Playing as a 40-minute suite of hypnotic and transcendent drum improvisations, the album beats through a repetitive, circular structure that brings to mind Indian folk music, jazz drum ensembles like Max Roach's M'Boom and the contemporary classical minimalism of Terry Riley and Steve Reich. From the undulating bass tones of the tabla to the tonal varieties of South Indian clay pot ghatam, the snare drum snap of the drum kit, and shades of electronic texture through the Buchla Easel, Korwar's ensemble bubbles and flows through a stream of steady rhythm, forever in motion like the ceaseless energy of a river. "The album is me finding my voice as a composer again and going back to the thing I know best, which is the drums," Korwar says. "It's me falling back in love with percussion and expressing just how melodic and emotive it can be. Unlike my other albums that have often engaged with weighty themes like migration, identity and futurism, this is a raw act of placing myself front and center -- letting the drums speak instead."
