| SEGUE RECORDS is the independent label of music development organisation SEGUE MUSIC. We are delighted to announce the release of SEGUE's first album, SEMENTES, the outstanding world-jazz debut album of the Adriano Adewale Group. Throw aside preconceived musical prejudices, abandon all attempts to catalogue: a rich chemistry of cultural influences is at work in this keenly awaited debut album from the Adriano Adewale Group. Rooted in the musical traditions of Nigeria, Angola and Brazil and infused with contemporary European classical and jazz styles, SEMENTES is a colourful cocktail of infectiously funky rhythms and intimate soulful ballads peppered with free-jazz improvisation. "World jazz at its best. Exhilarating, uplifting, life affirming music from the planet via London." **** The Jazz Mann.com "Adewale gave an extraordinary performance." Jazzwise - Pizza Express Launch Review "The vibe is exhilarating." **** Manchester Evening News “…Sementes benefits from a loose, folky, jazz feel and nuances that separate it from your average world groove recording.” *** Jazzwise "an album that, although superficially gentle on the ear, reveals more powerful felicities on repeated exposure." Vortex Jazz "Buy the album, stay at home, go on a journey." worldmusic.co.uk "a fine evocative album." *** Songlines SEMENTES is the work of percussionist and composer Adriano Adewale who steps out of his side-man role with the likes of Antonio Forcione, Monica Vasconcelos and Modeste Hughes to front his own outstanding international ensemble. Adriano Adewale: Percussion / Vocals Kadialy Kouyate: Kora / Vocals Marcelo Andrade: Sax / Flute/ Rabeca Nathan Riki Thomson: Double Bass / Flute Special Guests: Antonio Forcione: Acoustic Guitar Gilad Atzmon: Clarinet/Accordion SEGUE was founded in 2006 by Fiona Mason as a vehicle for presenting, promoting, producing and developing artists and projects, principally on the contemporary world-jazz spectrum but also across other contemporary genres and artforms. http://www.segue.org.uk |
