Soil & Pimp Sessions - Brothers & Sisters [Limited Edition] (2014)

A cheesy cover, but one of the greatest albums we've heard so far from this jazzy Japanese combo – a set that has them sounding even more dynamic than ever – but with a slightly different vibe! The instrumentation somehow feels even leaner, but still has all that very bracing feel from before – fast-driving drops topped by even faster tenor, piano, and trumpet – all at a speed that's much more moving than even some of the other club jazz on the Japanese scene in recent years, with a boldly blasting energy that really re-imagines the power of these instruments! The focus of these guys is tremendous – really hard to believe at times – and after nearly 10 years on this planet, Soil & Pimp are still a group beyond compare. Titles include "Sonido Del Mar", "Roots Of Soil", "Love Immediately", "Apple Gravitate Toward Core Of Star", "Black Tie", "I Wanna Love You", and "Red Sky".
