It was here that Takuya met vocalist\u00a0<strong>Jos\u00e9 James<\/strong>, with whom he worked on the &#8216;<i>Blackmagic<\/i>&#8216; and &#8216;<i>No Beginning No End<\/i>&#8216; projects.<\/p>\n<p>Following graduation, Takuya established himself further in the NYC jazz scene, performing with the likes of\u00a0<strong>Akoya Afrobeat<\/strong>\u00a0and in recent years with\u00a0<strong>DJ Premier<\/strong>&#8216;s\u00a0<strong>BADDER<\/strong>\u00a0band (also including acclaimed bass player,\u00a0<strong>Brady Watt<\/strong>). Premier said \u00ab<i>The BADDER Band project was put together by my manager, and an agent I&#8217;ve known since the beginning of my\u00a0<\/i><strong><i>Gang Starr\u00a0<\/i><\/strong><i>career. He said, &#8216;What if you put a band together that revolved around a trumpet player from Japan named Takuya Kuroda? He&#8217;s got a hip-hop perspective and respect in the jazz field\u2026\u00bb<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>Takuya Kuroda<\/strong>\u00a0is already incredibly prolific, releasing five albums in the past decade and fortifying a solid reputation in the global jazz scene. 2011 saw the release of Takuya&#8217;s independently-produced debut album, &#8216;<i>Edge<\/i>&#8216;, followed by &#8216;<i>Bitter and High<\/i>&#8216; the following year and &#8216;<i>Six Aces<\/i>&#8216; on\u00a0<strong>P-Vine<\/strong>\u00a0in 2013. Takuya was signed to the legendary\u00a0<strong>Blue Note Records<\/strong>\u00a0in 2014 for his album &#8216;<i>Rising Son<\/i>&#8216;, as well as appearing on their 2019 cover versions project, &#8216;<i>Blue Note Voyage<\/i>&#8216;. He released his 5th album &#8216;<i>Zigzagger<\/i>&#8216; on\u00a0<strong>Concord<\/strong>\u00a0in 2016, which also featured\u00a0<strong>Antibalas<\/strong>\u00a0on a reimagining of the\u00a0<strong>Donald Byrd<\/strong>\u00a0classic &#8216;<i>Think Twice<\/i>&#8216;.<\/p>\n<p>Late Summer 2020,\u00a0<strong>Takuya Kuroda<\/strong>\u00a0returns with his sixth album &#8216;<strong><i>Fly Moon Die Soon<\/i><\/strong>&#8216;.<\/p>\n<p>In his words,\u00a0<i>\u00abthis album is about the irony between the greatness of nature and the beautiful obsceneness of humanity. Melodies and grooves fly back and forth from being spiritual to being vulgar.\u00bb<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>It took two years to make this album. In 2018, I decided I just couldn&#8217;t make albums the same way I had been in the past anymore. As a birthday treat to myself, I booked a studio in Brooklyn for two days, with only myself and an engineer,\u00a0<\/i><strong><i>Todd Carder<\/i><\/strong><i>. I brought along some tracks I&#8217;d been building at home to see if we could complete them within that time. We began replacing sounds and adding texture, sampling noises from all over the studio; me sipping coffee, hitting a 26&#8243; kick drum, speeding up snares. At the end of the two days we were like \u00abwow, I didn&#8217;t know we could make tracks this good in this way\u00bb. This is how the process of the full album started. Everything was based on my beats I made at home, inviting musicians in one by one, adding or replacing parts. I was very careful when developing these tracks; just note by note, part by part. I wanted to make the music effectively from a blend of two different recording methods; one very slickly produced part and one very organic part played by live musicians. I remember mixtapes from when I was kid, and wanted to make an album that wasn&#8217;t just a bunch of flashy singles, trying to catch people&#8217;s attention in the first 30 seconds, or full of guest features. Instead, I&#8217;m essentially just trying to let the grooves breath.\u00bb<\/i><\/p>\n<p>The album consists of nine tracks of excellence. The uptempo jazz-funk of &#8216;<i>ABC<\/i>&#8216; and &#8216;<i>Moody<\/i>&#8216; sit alongside soulful jazz cuts like &#8216;<i>Fade<\/i>&#8216; and &#8216;<i>CHANGE<\/i>&#8216;, also featuring\u00a0<strong>Corey King<\/strong>\u00a0on vocals. The title track is a downtempo groove lead by a heavy Moog bassline, whilst &#8216;<i>Do No Why<\/i>&#8216; contains an infectious piano riff throughout. Aside from Takuya&#8217;s original compositions, he revisits two classics from\u00a0<strong>Ohio Players<\/strong>\u00a0(&#8216;<i>Sweet Sticky Thing<\/i>&#8216; featuring\u00a0<strong>Alina Engibaryan<\/strong>\u00a0on vocals) and\u00a0<strong>Herbie Hancock<\/strong>\u00a0(&#8216;T<i>ell Me A Bedtime Story<\/i>&#8216;) whilst the album closes with the epic &#8216;<i>TKBK<\/i>&#8216;.<\/p>\n<p>Takuya adds<i>\u00a0\u00abthis special cover was inspired by the Golden Moon I saw during a photoshoot in Death Valley with my homie Hiroyuki Seo\u00bb.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>Takuya Kuroda<\/strong>\u00a0is a truly unique talent, and this album is a realisation of the evolution of his sound.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First Word Records \u2013 FW216, 5050580735095<\/p>\n<p>LP UK<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":4561,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[85],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-4560","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-jazz-contemporaneo","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"taxable","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"purchasable","13":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
