Timmion Organic Grooves 14 Artikel

Dieser unerbittliche Underdog der New Orleans' Soul-Geschichte, bekannt für seine Arbeit mit The Meters und Allen Toussaint, wurde lange Zeit in den nördlichen Teilen der USA unterschätzt. Mit seinem neuen, rohen Sound, seiner sehr persönlichen Lyrik und als einer der tatsächlichen Überlebenden von Hurricane Katrina erzählt Soul-Sänger Willie West mit "After The Storm" die Geschichte von dem was passiert ist.

With this soul jazz slammer, Timmion introduces one of the most iconic Finnish contemporary jazzers, Jukka Eskola. Trumpeter Eskola's Soul Trio sounds exactly, what the name suggests, the golden era of mid 1960's soul jazz. The trio, composed of trumpet, organ and drums, delivers a sound that brings to mind classic Prestige recordings by Jack McDuff, Willis Jackson and Gene Ammons.Jukka Eskola started to make a name for himself already in the early 2000's but really gained a reputation as the tireless brass handler on Five Corners Quintet, the post millenial powerhouse of dance floor jazz from Helsinki. Since then he's been grinding hard on the international jazz circuit with his own groups and become the trumpet of choice in almost every jazz combo of note from Finland."Introducing The Soul Trio" and "Martha's New Moment" are both picked from Eskola's upcoming album on Timmion and should please everybody, who can handle their soul infused with jazz or their jazz with some greasy funk touches. Better get your plate ready, the grill is warming up!

Instrumental version of the Nicole Willis album 'Happiness In Every Style'!

"One In A Million" von Nicole Willis & The Soul Investigators ist die zweite Single aus dem kommenden Album "Happiness In Every Style", das im Oktober 2015 veröffentlicht wird.

It’s time to take another look at Myron & E, the duo of soul brothers from California, whose debut album “Broadway” was released by Stones Throw Records during the summer of 2013. “Going In Circles” is the second in a series of two Myron & E albums, which will be released by Timmion Records. It features tracks from the first album, an early single cut with The Soul Investigators, and a fresh new instrumental to groove on.

The shining stars of contemporary soul music, Nicole Willis & The Soul Investigators re-emerge in early 2013 with their much anticipated album "Tortured Soul" on the Timmion Records label. The new album presents a new personal sound for the group, which became known around the world in 2005 with their debut album "Keep Reachin' Up".

You are holding in your hands an album, which was never heard at the time it was recorded.For over 30 years it was stored in the archive of record producer and musician Dave Hamilton,one of the unsung heroes of the Detroit soul scene. The box of reels was marked simply-The Possible Little Ann Album-.

The mystified sound emanating from the disc in question belongs to the flute wielding monster Ernie Hawks. This dynamic player has grazed the airwaves of the worldwide underground for the past two decades. Now it's his star time.This two-tracker single from Ernie's debut album "Scorpio Man" sinks the listener deep into the moods of European library music and American instrumental funk classics. On "Journey To The Bottom", backed with fuzzy synth lines, he and The Soul Investigators explore emotional funk to the fullest. Their raw sound has pushed artists like Nicole Willis, Myron & E as well as Willie West to new heights before and now it's Ernie Hawks, who holds the torch.The intro of the title track "Scorpio Man" should give the breakbeat friends something to get excited about, while the rest of the track pushes the listener into the midst of a exploitation chase scene. It's possible that it's been a while since you've heard something as hard as well as uncomplicated and sincere. Keep your senses open for the coming full-length, it should drop like a bomb soon enough.

Who is Fred, you might ask. Suffice to say he is a complicated man, who possesses a buttery falsetto and the rare power to turn banal testimonies of heartache and love into cathartic magic. This basically means he has soul, and we don't state this lightly here at Timmion. After his first release, there are a few other heaters lined up, so be prepared for Fred, his star is rising.
