der neuseelŠndische multiinstrumentalist jordan rakei veršffentlicht sein hervorragendes debŸtalbum auf ninja tune! der erst kŸrzlich bei ninja tune unter vertrag genommene jordan rakei hat den kampf mit seinen inneren dŠmonen ausgefochten und wŠhrenddessen ein inspirierendes und bewegendes album aufgenommen. genannt hat er es -wallflower- (-mauerblŸmchen-). mit nur 25 jahren ist der multiinstrumentalist, sŠnger und produzent, der in neuseeland geboren wurde, ein seltenes talent, dessen eigenstŠndiger ansatz fŸr soul-musik ein klangliches und emotionales bewusstsein in sich trŠgt, dem viele andere kŸnstler ihr ganzes leben lang hinterher rennen. er schreibt mit einer reife und einer solchen begabung, die man bei seinem alter kaum vermuten wŸrde. mit seinem neuen album -wallflower-, das mitte september auf ninja tune erscheint, lotet er die grenzen seines genialen, oft sonnenbefleckten sounds aus, mit dem seine fans ihn kennen- und lieben gelernt haben. diese leichtigkeit, die von vornherein das rŸckgrat seines sounds war, ist nach wie vor stets zu hšren und blickt zurŸck auf seine zeit als teenager, als er mit seiner geliebten mpc im schlafzimmer versuchte 9th wonder oder pete rock nachzueifern. auf -wallflower- haben sich die gerŠte etwas verŠndert und der entstehungsprozess weiterentwickelt. der fokus liegt nun auf live-instrumentierung, doch groove und rhythmus bleiben unverkennbar. so schafft er es, soul und jazz in ein wahrlich pulsierendes werk zu rahmen, das gleichzeitig an seine stilistischen vorgŠnger the roots sowie freunde wie the internet, nick hakim und hiatus kaiyote erinnert.
