Jules Brennan - Wamono (2022)

"Jules' second LP -an intricately woven concept album of Japanese flavours for the soul, body & spirit. Featuring the classic oriental spy-funk of ‘Theme de Koto’ , the recently released Brit-funk sushi-soul 7” killer ‘Jongara Zeus’ & the Nippon-style Break-hop of ‘Shamisen K’. Also including the espionage psyche-jazz of new single ‘Sleep like Flint’ the Karate-flick dope trip of ‘Dragon boat set sail’ & the Japonican Disco Odyssey ‘Kyoto Moon Dance’.Or how about the heavy Koto theme of Myoushin Planets from the original Koncoction K sessions? Finally,you arrive at the lush soundscape of ‘Paragons of Bliss’-epically cinematic in its scope- a refuge of sound. The knitting together with Jules' textured instrumental skits & impressionistic vignettes form an organic flow that really takes you on that journey east"
