This time paired with Rainer Truby, Jazzanova follow on from their delicious
“Homecooking” compilation with “Beats, Bites & Oxle”, another sweet
selection of grooves (and cooking recipes) for your delectation.
Contributions come from Christian Prommer’s Drumlesson, Slope with Desney
Bailey, Extended Spirit (Rainer Truby Trio’s spin on “Solid Water”, worth
the price of admission alone), Tokyo Black Star with Rich Medina, and – a
real highlight – Nomumbah featuring Nadirah Shakoor’s version of “Like A
Rainbow”, a faultless take on the Amanita classic. The CD isn’t mixed as
such; rather, tracks are included and programmed in such a way as to make it
feel like it’s all flowing with a natural ebb. In short, another essential
Sonar Kollektiv release.
