Themonolith

Description

CT-HI Records are back at it again after a brief hiatus in order to develop the Jaxx Madicine project, started by Turbojazz and label founder Parker Madicine. During this period the label were joined by an Italian pianist and producer called Veezo, who they collaborated with on the making of their Distant Classic album and a number of EPs and remixes that came out on labels like Local Talk, Visions Rec, Dirt Crew and Eureka.
Following on from their recent Japanese tour as Jaxx Madicine Trio,
CTHI are now ready to unleash Monolith, the debut solo EP from Veezo.

Over the course of eight tracks, Veezo lays down his manifesto and illustrates the artist’s inspired heritage.
Raw and dirty 12-Bit grooves, tape delay and acid tinged arpeggios collide with elements of Afrobeat, accompanied by warm Fender Rhodes and luscious pads, showcasing Veezo’s remarkable musical creativity.
The two vocal tracks – featuring the unique talents of David Shorty and the Technoir duo – are outings in raw deep house and mutant boogie that are both drenched in the influence of spiritual jazz.
A variety of musicians participated in the recording of Monolith, providing live bass, flute and drum takes straight to an Akai tape recorder, adding further to the dirty, orchestral feel of the release.
