jitwam: sun after rain ep
With the release date set for tomorrow, Sun After Rain is a three-track EP from the sage and globetrotter Jitwam, coming out via his own The Jazz Diaries and Studio 54 Music. Composed by two original tracks, with the collaboration of the extraordinary French producer and DJ Folamour and New York’s Mad Jazz Records’ Mike Bloom, Jitwam’s new project goes directly to the imaginary dancefloors we’re craving.
The lead single “Sun After Rain”, with Folamour, is a keys-driven club groover, complete with triumphant brass stabs and a rock solid rhythm section, delivering a promise of the brighter tomorrow that the world is currently yearning for. On the flip Jitwam teams up with Mike Bloom for the sultry '“Body Do” - reverb soaked keys and layered vocals created a smoky, heady atmosphere as intergalactic synth lines pierce the haze. The remix of the lead song, by the legendary broken beat virtuoso Kaidi Tatham, wraps up this tasty release with stripped down, atmospheric, latin-tinged vibes. Vinyl editions are up for grabs.
