Black Feeling, Vol. 3 (Sampler)

A 2 track latin & world jazz single (9m 26s) — released August 28th 2015 on Freestyle Records

Black Feeling, a rhythmic feeling, a soulful feeling...

The previous two volumes of Black Feeling compiled a wealth of new and old discoveries culled from our musical explorations around the globe. In many instances the recordings were unearthed from unreleased master tapes, private-press vinyl recordings and little-known local releases.

It is now with great excitement that we present to you the 2-track Black Feeling Volume 3 sampler.

Kicking off with Futebol bu Bar by The Manuel Azevedo Quartet, an absolutely storming version of a club classic, this percussive, driving rhythmic onslaught will leave you breathless & sweaty! Eumir Deodato's Latin Strut has always been a much loved, crowd pleaser and this version by Esperanto, with its synthesiser line takes the melody in an analogue direction, while the Esperanto rhythm section put in in some serious overtime to make this version as memorable as the original.

Now hold on to your armchair (or the one you love), as we take off at a speed of forty five revolutions per minute to these two enchanting, evocative and pulsating rhythms taken from the forthcoming Black Feeling Vol. 3!

Hallelujah, it's the long-awaited return of Lance Ferguson's 'Black Feeling' series! The first two installments are two of my favourite records and never leave my crate.
