Moses Boyd - Dark Matter
Released 14th February 2020.
SK Album of the Year 2020
'A key figure in the all-conquering London jazz scene, Moses Boyd has collaborated with most of its players, either sat at the drum stool or in the producer's chair. Plenty of them return the favour here, including that man again Joe Armon-Jones, saxophonist/composer Nubya Garica, tuba innovator Theon Cross and Boyd's old sparring partner in the fiery improv duo Binker & Moses, Binker Golding.
Rooted in the London sound with its prominent Caribbean and UK bass culture influences, the Mercury-nominated 'Dark Matter' elides the boundaries between jazz and dance music, and is a cohesive, compelling document of one of the UK's most fertile musical patches.'
'Dark Matter' is a landmark record, a producer album by a young auteur, threading several thrilling musical traditions into a bold new tapestry: the raw energy of grime and afrobeats and the rolling club rhythms of the London underground, combined with the freewheeling creativity and collaborative spirit of his jazz training. With that mentality in mind, it's no surprise that his talents have trickled over into fashion, producing original compositions for the Louis Vuitton Foundation x MoMa Archive film (2017) and most recently scoring the Men's Dunhill Paris Fashion shows in both 2018 and 2019 . A double MOBO & Jazz FM Award winner, Boyd's live and studio collaborations have been as varied as they have been prolific, from touring with Sampha & Kelsey Lu, to drumming on Sons of Kemet's Mercury-nominated album, to his recent collaboration with South African Gqom king DJ Lag, which made its way onto Beyonce's official soundtrack for The Lion King. He produced Zara McFarlane 's 2017 full-length, Arise, in its entirety, for Gilles Peterson's Brownswood label, and released several acclaimed solo projects though his Exodus record label. Boyd has produced original scores for major Paris fashion shows, and with saxophonist Binker Golding, he's co-leader and co-producer of the ferocious semi-free group Binker and Moses.
