han litz: the universe is magic feat. kid sublime
Francisco Espregueira
Han Litz, Amsterdam's virtuoso jazz flutist, continues to defy musical boundaries with his latest release, The Universe Is Magic, in collaboration with long-time partner Kid Sublime. Released under the esteemed Wicked Wax label (that keeps providing a stellar string of new records), this EP transcends genres, seamlessly blending elements of jazz, dance, African rhythms, soul, funk, and Brazilian beats. Han Litz's flute weaves intricate melodies, adding layers of soulfulness that elevate the dance floor experience to new heights. With a discography that boasts releases on King Street, Yoruba, and Sonar Kollektiv, among others, Litz's musical journey is marked by a relentless pursuit of unity through creativity.
The Universe Is Magic not only showcases Litz's unparalleled skill but also features standout remixes by notable figures in the scene. Daz-I-Kue, the original Bugz In The Attic broken beat icon, brings his signature flair to the table, while emerging Dutch talent Kofi The Unknown adds his own unique perspective to the mix. With tracks like "Epiphany Electrified" and "Unity In Diversity," Han Litz and Kid Sublime invite us to a trip that crossovers so many elements that we love in music, reminding us that within this universe, magic awaits those who dare to explore its limitless possibilities. Available on vinyl.
