Herbie Hancock - Sextant

This tune is from my favourite Herbie Hancock record, Sextant, which was the last he recorded with the Mwandishi band.
From this one record you can find references to a lot of great 60s/70s musical developments that the band have mashed together - early electronic music, jazz, african rhythms, modernist composition, free improvisation....

By taking advantage of (then) current technology and compositional ideas, the recording produced a listening experience that sounds wildly futuristic and outlandish, but also maintains a very human and traditional/ritualistic feel through the band's performance. Both of these aspects anchor the record to the time it was made and, due to it's widespread lack of popularity when first released, allow it to retrospectively serve as a "what if?" for the future of music from that point on.

The CLOUT Summer Hip Hop Classics Mixtape

Hi people,

This is the first post on our blog and it features a mix of some of our favourite summertime hip hop tracks, recorded onto cassette. 

We originally made it for a night we put on a little while ago called Beauty & The Beat. 

 Due to the current season, it seemed appropriate to tweak it a bit and revisit some 90s classics, as well as some more recent gems. 

We recently gave it to the people at Experimental Circle Club to post on the website for Offset Festival, which we're playing on 5th September.
