Madlib's Young Jazz Rebels - Slave Riot

More Madlib!???!?!!!! Going for a crazy slightly smoothed-out version of Miles' Live Evil or something with this one. Sounds pretty good and the vinyl definitely looks tasty, but I might check the Last Electro-Acoustic Space Jazz joint instead...

Young Jazz Rebels is a Madlib jazz group from the Yesterdays Universe collective. The album Slave Riot, their debut, is an avant-garde free jazz record, a style Madlib has been developing with Young Jazz Rebels since their debut on 2006's Chrome Children compilation with the track “Nino's Deed.”

An alternate take of “Nino's Deed” is included on Slave Riot, with 17 others – sounds ranging from heavy rhythm (“The Legends of Mankind”) to electro-jazz fusion (“Forces Unseen”, “Black Freedom”) to the sparse and experimental heard in the 2-part album centerpiece, “Slaved Riot”.

Inspired primarily by independent and experimental jazz vinyl from the late 60s, 70s and 80s, Slave Riot begins and ends with audible vinyl static, and it's packaged uniform with Madlib's other new jazz release, Miles Away: CD with heavy-boarded mini-gatefold LP-style package with a “tip-on” gatefold photo and inner sleeve. The double LP is printed with a duo-tone black panther on front & back.

Seriously, if you count the third album of the Medicine Show series coming out this month I think it would be his fifth- and we're only two months into the year really!

I cant keep up either. hopefully they are quality wins over quantity.

Slave Riot is probably 2nd to Miles Away only, it's that good!
