If Flying Lotus reveres John Coltrane, then Aardvarck has clearly built a shrine to several jazz legends of old, placed it next to his turntables, and isn’t afraid to worship it live while he does his dirty work. Interspersed between ambient and classic rhythms of Coltrane and other jazz greats (is that Weather Report?!) is a cadence of claps and stomp-worthy beats, all provided by the man isn’t afraid to experiment with a variety of different rhythms, and crank the subwoofer up in his quest for the ultimate thunder. Wisely Aardvarck lets the rhythms and beats do most of the talking and keeps the other jazz bits, especially some of the more dated material, to a minimum. It’s worth checking out right now on Red Bull Music Academy Radio.
