Win a copy of AOTW "Endlessness"


Endlessness is the second album by London-based Caribbean-Belgian composer Nala Sinephro. It builds on the foundations of her stunning 2021 debut Space 1.8.  

The music draws on ambient, acoustic and electronic sounds, reflecting broader trends in contemporary jazz. Sinephro's approach feels distinctly personal, though, rooted in her study of geometry and fascination with natural cycles and patterns.

Ten interconnected tracks, all titled 'Continuum,' centre around a recurring synth motif. The structure allows for nuanced shifts in mood. 'Continuum 2' evolves from gentle beginnings into a minor-key orchestral piece, while 'Continuum 6' brings an energetic groove with dense synth tones and saxophone melodies.

Endlessness is a spacious record rich in detail. Sinephro plays harp, piano, and synthesizers, and arranges striking string sections. She's joined by several collaborators from London's jazz scene who each add depth and spontaneity. Key contributors include James Mollison (saxophone), Morgan Simpson (drums), Nubya Garcia (saxophone), Sheila Maurice-Grey (flugelhorn), Lyle Barton (piano, synth), Natcyet Wakili (drums), and Dwayne Kilvington (synth bass).
