{"product_id":"bfdnl014","title":"Austin Peralta - Endless Planets","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe next album forthcoming from Brainfeeder might, at first sight, \r\nappear to be something of a change in direction for the label but \r\nnothing could be further from the truth. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAustin Peralta is a jazz musician. Not in the sense that he or people \r\nclose to him bandy around the word “jazz” (or even worse, “jazzy”) in \r\nrelation to his music. No, in the sense of years of practice and \r\ndedication to a particular artform. In the sense of having played with, \r\namongst many others, the likes of Chick Corea, Hank Jones and Ron \r\nCarter. In the sense of having serious chops. Of playing the piano and \r\ncomposing like a true veteran. And in the sense of having done all that \r\nby the time he’s twenty. And that’s before you even get into his work as\r\n a session player for everyone from Erykah Badu to Shafiq Husayn, or the\r\n time he sat in with legendary LA big band, Horace Tapscott’s Pan \r\nAfrikan People’s Arkestra. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut, as Flying Lotus explains, “this is a step in direction of where I \r\nwant Brainfeeder to go. True musicianship as well as some interesting \r\nelectronics.” Peralta, another LA native and son of legendary Z-Boy \r\nskater and, latterly, documentary film-maker Stacy Peralta, in many ways\r\n fits clearly into what Brainfeeder has always been about, a combination\r\n of questing futurism and an understanding of where you’re coming from. \r\nSo while Peralta works alongside serious jazz musicians like Zane Musa \r\n(alto sax), Ben Wendel (tenor and soprano), Hamilton Price (bass) and \r\nZach Harmon (drums), he also relies on longtime friend and associate \r\nStrangeloop for electronic manipulation throughout the set and ends the \r\nalbum with a scintillating collaboration with The Cinematic Orchestra \r\nand singer Heidi Vogel. \r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n“People would always tell me about this genius jazz pianist,” Flying \r\nLotus recalls. “‘He's, like, 17 or 18 and already sounds like McCoy Tyner!’\r\n I had to go and see what was up, so Dr Strangeloop introduced me, and I\r\n got to hear this amazing record.” And once he’d heard it there was only\r\n one outcome. It is, after all, the Brainfeeder way. “We had to put it \r\nout.” \r\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ninjatune","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":44934133022879,"sku":"BFCD014","price":10.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0493\/8563\/5999\/products\/endless-planets-main.jpg?v=1736247191","url":"https:\/\/merch.ninjatune.net\/products\/bfdnl014","provider":"Ninja Tune","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
