Deciphering The Message – Vinyl LP

Drummer, producer & beat scientist Makaya McCraven digs through the Blue Note vaults with this new remix project that puts a modern bounce on jazz classics by Art Blakey, Horace Silver, & more. McCraven’s mastery of the loop is akin to hip-hop’s most celebrated beatmakers like J Dilla & Madlib, both of whom have also remixed Blue Note tracks, but McCraven’s unique approach also incorporates new recorded elements including his own drums, Joel Ross’ vibraphone, Jeff Parker’s guitar, & more.
