The record is exactly the kinda thing that keeps me fiery for the music scene. It combines the band's love of Ethio-jazz, Krautrock, 60s psychedelia, garage rock, African rock, South American folk music, prog, and even proto-metal into a distinctive time capsule dealing with themes of collective memory, climate change, mythology, science fiction, and loving kindness. Each song flows seamlessly into the next creating an infinite loop that echoes the album's theme of the circular nature of time.Watch the triple music video!Feels like a record made for me and likely you too listeners!

Acts 8:26-40 Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Rise and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” This is a desert place. 27 And he rose and went. And there was an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a court official of Candace, queen of the Ethio-pians, who was in charge of all her treasure. He had come to Jerusalem to wor-ship 28 and was returning, seated in his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah. 29 And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and join this chariot.” 30 So Philip ran to him and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” 31 And he said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him. 32 Now the passage of the Scripture that he was reading was this: “Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he opens not his mouth. 33 In his humiliation justice was denied him. Who can describe his generation? For his life is taken away from the earth.” 34 And the eunuch said to Philip, “About whom, I ask you, does the prophet say this, about himself or about someone else?” 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this Scripture he told him the good news about Jesus. 36 And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?” 38 And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him. 39 And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way re-joicing. 40 But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he preached the gospel to all the towns until he came to Caesarea.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Steven Dayvid McKellar over Zoom video.South African-born but Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter Steven Dayvid McKellar recently his new EP One and Zero. A product of the last two pandemic years, this EP proved to be a cathartic creative outlet for him. Bringing together introspective and personal observations of the intrinsic world of isolation with the larger cultural context that the polarized socio/political environment has bred in this country, One and Zero is at once an individual reflection and a social commentary. “It's both the times we're in and then the questions I'm asking myself. I think the intimacy comes from the desire to be more vulnerable and honest with myself and with others,” he continues. Minimalistic and introspective without pretense or artifice, One and Zero explores the isolation that the pandemic brought on. The former lead singer and primary songwriter for popular rock band Civil Twilight, McKellar dives deep into the subconscious and unearths melodies that strike the gut, eliciting deep seated emotions of heartbreak in his minimalistic electronic style. The title track tackles the stasis and stillness of being that the quarantine brought. The EP is rounded out by the contemplative “Fading In, Fading Out” and a live version of “The Promise?” from his previous album ETHIO. “I am in the middle of my life (most likely) and so the natural question that pops up is, am I fading in or am I fading out,” he asks in reference to the aforementioned track. “I'm both, at the same time, all the time.” Regarding the live take on “The Promise?” and why he opted to revisit that track from his 2020 album, he replies, “That song, and ETHIO as a whole, never really got heard or liked. And I'm really proud of that record and wanted to show another angle. My dear friend Daniel Shepherd filmed me while I played songs from that album outside in a parking lot on the bed of my truck. You can hear birds chirping in the background and I like that.” With Civil Twilight, McKellar had seen life on the big stage, having led the South African rock band through a very successful run, sharing stages with Jimmy Eat World, Silversun Pickups, Smashing Pumpkins and Florence + the Machine amongst others. Civil Twilight's songs were placed on TV shows such as One Tree Hill, House, and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Now solo and focusing on releasing music on his own terms, he's thankful to continue being creative. We want to hear from you!

Plus; Scarface, books for 16 year olds, The Sixth Sense spoilers, bunk, Ed Wood, and more! Mulatu Astatke (ሙላቱ አስታጥቄ, born 19 December 1943) is an Ethiopian musician and arranger considered as the father of "Ethio-jazz". Born in Jimma, Mulatu was musically trained in London, New York City, and Boston where he combined his jazz and Latin music interests with traditional Ethiopian music. Mulatu led his band while playing vibraphone and conga drums—instruments that he introduced into Ethiopian popular music—as well as other percussion instruments, keyboards, and organs. His albums focus primarily on instrumental music, and Mulatu appears on all three known albums of instrumentals that were released during the Ethiopian Golden Age in 1970s.

    Hackney Colliery Band kick off our show this week with a double cover shot bookend. Both songs were massive hits during the 90s, and they are performed beautifully. Hackney Colliery Band do intimate justice to a couple of 90s bangers this week - it's a mammoth task. What impresses us here at Record Box HQ about these tracks is the work that has gone into them. Yeah, get 4 guys or gals with guitars and drums and you can cover songs. It's easy enough. But for a brass band it's so much more difficult. You're all of a sudden no longer covering the song. Firstly, you're arranging the song for a brass band. Secondly, you have to think about the dynamics of the sound. It's mega really, and that's why Hackney Colliery Band are bookending today. Throat singing makes a welcome return to the show as the modern day Robert Johnson performs Cape Cod Girls. Now, that is a bold statement but just stick around and listen to Baby Gramps and you'll get it. Bashing away at his trusty National steel guitar and killing every nerve ending in his throat, its a mesmerising performance. And moreover it's Pirate Music! Zooluxx play a pre-release on the show too, a good 2 months plus before it's released. Regular listeners will have already heard Zooluxx on previous shows and will well know what to expect. Zooluxx deliver, sonic vibes and dirty vox. It's all so god darned American and Wild West Psychadelia at its best. Plus there's more choice music here, so dive right in.

Since the release of Hackney Colliery Band’s debut album in 2011, they have blown their way into the public consciousness. Their genre-bending combination of brass, reeds and percussion established themselves as one of the most exciting bands in the UK. Performing at numerous venues, festivals and clubs around the world, including a show at the Scala as part of the London Jazz Festival. Hackney Colliery Band have also been busy in the studio. Developing a more mature and polished sound, they are pleased to announce the release of new album ‘Collaborations: Volume One’ . It's their first new material since the critically-acclaimed ‘Sharpener’ in 2016. It’s already been an incredible journey for this talented group of musicians. HCB have played a 45-minute set at the Closing Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics and sets at the MOBO, Brit and Mercury Awards. Also, live sessions on BBC Two, BBC Radio 2, Jazz FM and worldwide airplay from many more. They have collaborations with the likes of Amy Winehouse and Madness. To add, they have sold out venues across London including KOKO and The Forum, to a European tour. Hackney Colliery Band have not stopped. It’s hard to believe that 2019 is our tenth anniversary. Now we’re ten years older it felt like the right time to get back to our jazz roots. It’s been a privilege to work with so many of our musical inspirations both old and new.

After writing music for and performing with Duke Ellington, he set Ethiopia’s modern golden age of music into motion in the 1970s, with his music now having been sampled by Nas, Damian Marley, Kanye West and Nicolas Jaar, among others. Sally Mousa spoke to Mulatu before he took to the stage with his band for an electrifying concert at the opening of the Africa Hall in Sharjah.
