Jeff Parker - The New Breed LP NEW
International Anthem Recording Co.
Jeff Parker’s 2016 album The New Breed was a turning point for both
Parker and International Anthem, changing the trajectory of his solo
career as well as drawing an abundance of attention to our fresh imprint
despite our then very limited catalog. Most importantly though, the album
is the first to give voice to Parker’s wholly unique take on sample-based
beat construction augmented by improvisation and live instrumentation
(performed in this case by the high-level crew of Paul Bryan on bass, Josh
Johnson on alto saxophone and keys, Jamire Williams and Jay Bellerose on
drums, Parker's daughter Ruby on vocals, and Parker himself on guitar,
synths, and other instruments).
What began as Jeff’s interest in understanding his own idea of hip-hop
processes (and how they related to his work in jazz) expanded into a
blueprint for much of his work since then. (Hear also: The New Breed’s
expansive followup Suite For Max Brown, the gentle deconstructionist
solo guitar of Forfolks, and the long-form slow bloom improvisation of
The Way Out of Easy.)
