From dub classics to Nigerian funk, this Friday (28/03) is jam-packed. To check out the full list, click the new releases button above.

First, we have Makaya McCraven’s In The Moment, an album that introduced the drummer/producer and set the blueprint for his signature style. It includes 48 hours of live improvised performances recorded over a year, which have been cut and remixed into 19 pieces of organic beat music.

For more jazz-related beats make sure you check out, MADVILLAIN Vol. 1, which reimagines MF Doom and Madlib’s Madvillainy through a jazz lens. Recorded live with minimal overdubs, the album pays homage to 70s TV and film scores, drawing from influences like Quincy Jones and Lalo Schifrin. Arranger Rob Mitchell explores the jazz-hip-hop connection, crafting a dynamic and immersive listening experience.

For more genre exploration look no further than Joe Armon-Jones’ All The Quiet (Part I). This LP is a genre-blending statement, traversing jazz, funk, dub, hip-hop, and soul. The Ezra Collective member wrote, producer and mixed the album, enlisting guests like Nubya Garcia and Oscar Jerome. Released via his label Aquarii Records, it marks his most personal and elevated solo work.

Continuing the jazz theme, Milo Fitzpatrick’s Sierra Tracks expands his Vega Trails project with a cinematic album inspired by Spain’s Sierra de Guadarrama mountains. Featuring pianist Taz Modi, vibraphonist Harriet Riley, and multi-reedist Jordan Smart, the album reflects themes of nature, mental health, and personal growth. Fitzpatrick blends natural inspirations with repeating motifs, making the record a meditative journey.

Next, we have two albums from Nigerian artist William Onyeabor, who pioneered African electronic funk in the late ‘70s and ‘80s, creating uniquely futuristic music. Despite admiration from artists like Damon Albarn and Madlib, Onyeabor remained an enigma, never performing live or discussing his past. Later, he became born again, disowning his earlier music. Luckily for us, these have been archived and are now available on vinyl again.

Coke’s self-titled 1972 album is a Miami Latin funk gem, blending psychedelic garage rock, gritty soul, and Latin rhythms. Originally released on Sound Triangle Records, the LP features bright funk drumming, flavourful organs, and zesty horns, with unique vocals adding an unexpected twist. A must-listen for fans of early Santana and garage-psych.

Finally, we have dub classic Black Ash Dub, a defining late-70s dub album by The Revolutionaries. Recorded at Kingston’s Channel One studio and mixed by Scientist and Prince Jammy, the LP showcases Sly Dunbar’s signature drumming and Robbie Shakespeare’s supple basslines. Originally released on Trojan Records in 1980, it remains a cornerstone of classic dub.

Paradise House is an 11-track compilation celebrating Italian house music’s pioneering role in shaping club culture. Emerging from provincial studios rather than global metropolises, young producers redefined electronic music by blending imported patterns with rhythmic innovation. They crafted beats that predated hip-hop’s “Perfect Rhythm,” drawing inspiration from discotheques and after-hours clubs alike. Their work laid the foundation for modern dance music, often taking their productions to New York to add vocals that propelled their tracks to global recognition.

Drums in Dub is an eight-track instrumental dub album by Nat Birchall, crafted for 1970s dub enthusiasts. A reimagining of his acclaimed Dimension of the Drums LP, it features classic roots dub remixes inspired by legends like Keith Hudson and King Tubby. With added horn lines, hand drums, and two new mixes of an unreleased rhythm track, Birchall single-handedly recorded, mixed, and mastered the album, delivering an authentic vintage dub sound.
