Info for We Are Sent Here By History
Von der kollaborativen Space-Jazz-Formation The Comet Is Coming zu seinem eigenen Quartett Sons of Kemet – der Tenorsaxophonist SHABAKA HUTCHINGS erlebt seit Mitte der 2010er Jahre einen rasanten Aufstieg in der Londoner Jazzszene. Sein manchmal meditativer, manchmal brutal rauer Ton ist zu seiner klanglichen Handschrift geworden. Gemeinsam mit südafrikanischen Musikern erkundet er unter dem Namen SHABAKA AND THE ANCESTORS die Möglichkeiten einer gemeinsamen Musiksprache vor unterschiedlichen kulturellen Hintergründen. 2016 veröffentlichte die Band ihr Albumdebüt „Wisdom Of Elders“, jetzt folgt mit „We Are Sent Here By History” ein ebenfalls in Johannesburg aufgenommenes zweites Werk. Es verbindet spirituellen Jazz mit südafrikanischem Nguni, zentralafrikanischen Songstrukturen und karibischem Calypso.
“We Are Sent Here by History is a meditation on the fact of our coming extinction as a species. It is a reflection from the ruins, from the burning. a questioning of the steps to be taken in preparation for our transition individually and societally if the end is to be seen as anything but a tragic defeat. For those lives lost and cultures dismantled by centuries of western expansionism, capitalist thought and white supremist structural hegemony the end days have long been heralded as present with this world experienced as an embodiment of a living purgatory.” (Shabaka Hutchings)
