Description

LP by Los Angeles-based polymath Shafiq Husayn; an epic project which saw its inception in 2012 through a series of studio sessions at Shafiq's home, including collaborations with the likes of Thundercat, Erykah Badu, Flying Lotus, Bilal and Anderson .Paak. Amongst a close knit circle of friends and family the golden tones of 'The Loop' were created, deeply rooted in ideas of song, story, history, guidance and spirituality. The album bumps, jumps and jangles through progressions in jazz, hip hop, soul and funk, following on from his debut album 'Shafiq En' A-Free-Ka' and adding further to his rich history of timeless, unique music. On 'The Loop' past, present and future are brought together through a psychedelic concoction of time traveling drum machines, celestial string sections and trails of synthesiser vapour. Inflections of Sly Stone, Pharaoh Sanders and Earth Wind and Fire traverse with Marley Marl and Dilla-esqe drums making for an organic yet LA-trifying experience.
