K15 Still can't believe that this was all recorded live - so so good. Everyone involved is so special. Favorite track: Free Form ft. Temesgen Samuel.

about

NRG 1 is the first album in a new series from London based drummer/producer, Chiminyo, in which he and members of his musical community exchange (strictly improvised) NRG with audiences and capture the spontaneous beauty to be shared with the world.

NRG 1 features an all-star line-up (band members of Jorja Smith, Nubyan Twist, Gary Bartz, Nightmares on Wax, Yussef Kamaal) and you can really feel the vibrant NRG of the capital pulsating throughout. Tunes like ‘Raze’ and ‘Purple/Green’ and their whirling, high octane, jungle/brokenbeat aesthetic are balanced beautifully by tunes like the smooth, sexy, R&B anthem ‘SLK’ and the downtempo, ambient, latin-house ‘Eleguá’, a Yoruba prayer, led by trumpet player Yelfris Valdés, cleansing the room and bringing positive vibes to the band and the audience.
