about

“Conscious Friendship” gradually stirs into motion as hypnotic rhythms, brooding bass, and dancing saxophone converge to create a sense of perpetual motion, of slow but steady flux. The latest single off Khalab’s new album Layers (out on August 25th) seamlessly combines the different musical worlds of each artist, building on the synergy between them to craft a layered and softly expansive piece.

Jazz-influenced rhythms are supplied by Emanative, the cosmic, multi-cultural jazz project of forward-thinking producer and percussionist Nick Woodmansey, while multi-wind player Tamar Osborn adds to the musical conversation with her thrumming baritone sax that sometimes unfurls into a gentle, searching melody. The track ends on a contemplative note, with the words and vocals of producer, DJ, and vocalist Grove, one of the most exciting and radical artists to emerge from Bristol’s eclectic music scene in recent years.

lyrics

moving through infinite mirrors and glass
reflections stretched to future and past
shimmers of everything and nothing at all
senses awaken through rise and the fall

I was brought here after listening to a live performance of Makaya's on you tube. I instantly loved the song Holy Lands so much that I had to see if the album version was the same rendition as the live one. Then I listened to the whole album! Universal Beings is a just a groove... It's a mix of traditional and something new, very nice. pandr1900

Peerless "punk" jazz. I particularly love the sound of the drums & the trumpet. Sweet, intense, full of fervor. Griffyn Louis Denizard
