Soundway Records completes the Lord Echo album collection, finally reissuing the second album in the trilogy from the in-demand New Zealand multi-instrumentalist and producer. Originally released in 2013, 'Curiosities' is now available as a DJ friendly double LP for the first time.
The entirely self-produced album blends jazz with disco-tinged neo-soul, reggae and classic afro-beat in effortless manner - and joins the dots between the more downtempo first album ‘Melodies’ and the disco, electronic, club-ready sound of his third album ‘Harmonies’.
The album also features a dub-funk cover of Pharoah Sanders' "The Creator Has A Master Plan", with vocals from Lisa Tomlins.
Includes unlimited streaming of Curiosities (2nd Album)
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
supported by 40 fans who also own “The Creator Has A Master Plan”
Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
