about

Producer and bassist Huw Marc Bennett presents 'Blue Lias', the first track from a new project, which draws from artists such as Tim Maia, Augustus Pablo and Idris Muhammed as much as the jazz scene and community he has found in south east London. The languid, sultry sound fuses both modern and vintage, travelling from South London electronica, to Brazillian groove, Nigerian Afrobeat and Ghanaian Highlife along with a streak of Welsh psychedelia.

The project started out as a lost live session recorded at the Total Refreshment Centre studios, featuring Chelsea Carmichael (sax), Rosie Turton (trombone), Shirley Tetteh (guitar), Jake Long (drums) and Miryam Solomon (vocals), with Huw at the helm on bass and compositions. Utilising his human style of production and multi instrumentality heard in his Susso project (Soundway Records, 2016), he molded these recordings into a mature and emotional sound. A full album will be released later this year on Alberts Favourites.

He draws on Tim Maia, Augustus Pablo and Idris Muhammed as much as he does the Jazz scene and community he has found in South East London, with a streak of ‘Sain Records’ brand welsh phycyedlia running through the whole thing. ... more
