Kamasi Washington has announced his new album ‘Fearless Movement’ and has shared its lead single ‘Prologue’. Check it out below.The cinematic track sees the Los Angeles jazz multi-instrumentalist create upbeat instrumentation featuring pounding drums and a glorious trumpet at the forefront.
Directed by Washington’s longtime collaborator AG Rojas and choreographed by Samantha Blake Goodman, the single’s accompanying video sees a group of dancers dancing in a massive house.Speaking about his forthcoming seventh album in a press release, Washington has referred to ‘Fearless Movement’ as his dance album. “It’s not literal.
Dance is movement and expression, and in a way it’s the same thing as music—expressing your spirit through your body. That’s what this album is pushing,” he said.The album also focuses on the everyday, an exploration of life on earth which was inspired by the birth of the musician’s first child a few years ago.“Being a father means the horizon of your life all of a sudden shows up,” he added. “My mortality became more apparent to me, but also my immortality—realizing that my daughter is going to live on and see things that I’m never going to see.
I had to become comfortable with this, and that affected the music that I was making.”‘Fearless Movement’ also features the likes of André 3000 on flute, George Clinton, BJ The Chicago Kid, D-Smoke and Taj and Ras Austin of Coast Contra, Thundercat, Terrace Martin, Patrice Quinn, Brandon Coleman, DJ Battlecat and more.
