NOW PLAYING IN THE SAVAGE JUKEBOX FEBRUARY 2018

"CHRIS DAVE AND THE DRUMHEDZ"
CHRIS DAVE AND THE DRUMHEDZ
Released January 26, 2018
NEW 2018 MUSIC: This is the first new release of 2018 that I have heard and it is already one of the very best albums of the year, as far as I am concerned.

Drummer extraordinaire Chris "Daddy" Dave, who has performed with the likes of D'Angelo, Adele, Robert Glasper and even more has at long last struck out upon his own with his band's debut album, a staggeringly well recorded, produced and performed deep dive into neo-soul psychedelia which feels to be the next quantum leap from the musical big bang that produced D'Angelo's "Voodoo" (released January 25, 2000), The Roots' "Phrenology" (released November 26, 2002), Common's "Electric Circus" (released December 10, 2002), Erykah Badu's "Mama's Gun" (released November 21, 2000). J Dilla's "Donuts" (released February 7, 2006) and especially, Q-Tip's far ahead of the curve "Kamaal The Abstract," a work recorded and originally planned for release in 2002 but did not officially see the light of day until September 15, 2009.

Of course, "Chris Dave And The Drumhedz" sounds like the full extension of all of those aforementioned albums. But, the album is not solely an excursion into 21st century psychedelic soul. In fact, in track after track, we can hear the history of Black music, in all of its incarnations from R&B, jazz, hip-hop, rock and roll, blues, funk and variations of Fela Kuti inspired African rhythms through the audio "lens" of an interstellar journey (certainly, nods to Parliament Funkadelic) with Dave's spectacularly elastic drums serving as the engine, as well as the sonic glue, pushing the songs forwards while holding everything together.

Intoxicating, enveloping, succulent, surprising, immersive, flowing, sumptuous and even more, Chris Dave has thrown down the gauntlet superbly, challenging the music year of 2018 to follow suit in the fullness of artistry and creativity.

WSPC'S SESSION NOTES FOR FEBRUARY 2018

FROM THE DJ'S STUDIO DESK:

...And the band played on.

More than enough has been said by me upon this site about the state f the world in the 21st century ad there is no need to run through it allover again. In stead, I just ask of you to take a few moments to think about the nature of the month of February in regards to both Valentine's Day and Black History Month.

Yes, Valentine's Day is essentially nothing more than a Hallmark holiday but even so, I do believe that to have a point in time to just take that moment to think about love, who we love and how we love is a great thing, especially as the speed of life only grows faster. With Black History Month, I am more in tune with the necessity of the month rather than aspects of the month that are indeed problematic for me, as the core is entirely about exploring, discovering, and maintaining a culture and therefore, our history as a people and how that history congeals with WORLD history.

Love. Culture. History.

All of those elements are a necessity for us to fully understand or past and how w e are able to continue marching into our collective futures. And furthermore, all of those elements are aligned perfectly into the music that we all cherish, the music that sustains us. the music that we become.

For this month, as you continue to listen, I invite you to really place the songs into the contexts of love, culture and history. Who knows? You just may hear everything in exciting new ways...

...and as always...PLAY LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
