Sales Information:

Led by saxophonist Daoud Abubakar Balew who studied formal classical music and received instruction from Frank Mitchell (Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers) and Jackie McLean (Blue Note records), Ambiance incorporates Brazilian and Latin flavours with a righteous and soulful Afrocentric jazz edge. This amazing and sought after LP beautifully starts with the haunting "The Clavicle" sampled by MF Doom on the Special Herbs beat series and contains other gems like the so fresh call for celebration Fiesta composed by Gato Barbieri, the insane spiritual jazz fusion track Gida-Gida and the killer modern soul cut There Is A Love featuring the beautiful voice of Syreeta wright. This album is magnificent in its entirety, no fillers!
