Los Massieras – 8 Tracks To Trip To
Earlier in September Los Massieras told us exactly what we don't need, and now, taking another tack, they've kindly sent us a selection of stuff that they absolutely do. Joining the dots between soulful, psychedelic brain exercises and saucer-eyed, electronic-cosmos introspection, take a look through the binoculars of the finest Jamaican-French-Spanish meeting of borders since the Pyranees and see what stuff they're made of.
Los Massieras' released 'We Don't Need' through WYN&M Records ealier this month, have a look at our review here and find out more about their movements here.
This track is pure cosmic outer-planetary bliss, opening up with the washed-out chorused Fender Rhodes chords played by Lonnie Liston Smith. Gliding over a fat acoustic bass line played by Cecil McBee anchoring it to a constellation of sub-solar plexus stuff. The drums shuffle and ride with Clifford Jarvis at the helm. And the Griot Pharoah wails Karnatic Kongolese passages on melted soprano sax, and it’s the perfect ticket to attain enlightenment to, as you float on kaleidoscopic astral bliss.
