Ethio Jazz is a landmark album by contemporary Ethiopian music pioneer Mulatu Astatke from back in 1974 on Ethiopia’s Amha Records. It features melancholic wind melodies and a polyrhythmic rhythm section that soon draws you in while sultry vibraphone and smoky organ tones blend the essence of American jazz with Ethiopian musical traditions. This unique fusion creates a sound that remains a high point in Astatke’s career and the Ethio Jazz genre overall. It’s a faultless demonstration of Mulatu’s ambitious creativity and one that masterfully balances diverse musical elements. For that reason, this timeless album continues to resonate in the jazz world and beyond.

Two days after his 100th birthday, Marshall Allen started recording New Dawn, his debut solo album. A member of Sun Ra’s Arkestra since 1958, Allen assumed leadership of the band in 1995. Throughout his nearly seventy-year career, Allen has never released a solo album under his own name, and yet, instead of capping such a legendary output, New Dawn seems to herald a new beginning. A love letter to spacetime, it channels a century of musical intelligence into seven tracks, showing Allen at his most protean — freely moving from relaxed, transdimensional palettes to bluesy big band and beyond.
