Sarathy Korwar - My East Is Your West - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Black Milk, one of the most prodigious and versatile talents in the world of hip-hop, returns in 2016 alongside his band Nat Turner with a live instrumental album, The Rebellion Sessions, a jazz-funk opus recorded over the span of one week. Orchestrated and produced by Black Milk, The Rebellion Sessions features Nat Turner (Aaron InchAbInch Abernathy on keys, Malik Hunter on bass, and Zebulun InchZInch Horton on drums). Although the guys have appeared on Black's previous works, The Rebellion Sessions is the first project created by the four as a collaborative unit. The album, at times recalling the works of Fela Kuti, Charles Mingus, Miles Davis, Sly & The Family Stone, D'Angelo, and Robert Glasper, builds off Black Milk and Nat Turner's incredible live show, honed over the course of years and more than 90 shows played worldwide in 2015 alone.

S. Prokofiev - Piano Sonatas Nos. 4 & 6 [COMPACT DISCS] date 03/01/2009

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.
