Adrian Younge teams up with opera singer Brooke deRosa and jazz singer Rebecca Englehart in this amazing project, 'Adrian Young Presents: Voices of Gemma'. This 10 - track LP blends R&B, funk, jazz, and late - '60s to early - 70s psychedelic soul. Younge creates a backdrop that makes the vocalists' talents shine. 'Stranger by the Sea' starts the LP with a guitar - driven beat, loose drums, and a roving bassline, giving space for ethereal vocals. 'Silhouette Dreams' keeps a similar vibe, while 'Heaven's Found' with its jazzy horn/string section changes the pace. 'Come Back' features haunting operatic vocals, and 'The Leaves' feels like a hidden gem from the past. 'Dreams with You' is also a standout. Every song on this LP is worth listening to. It comes with a gatefold sleeve, an insert, and is from the music label Linear Labs 2018. Reviewed by rei kwondo 07/18.
Using this vinyl LP is easy. Just place it on your record player, gently drop the needle on the starting groove, and enjoy the music. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting fingerprints on it, as this can affect the sound quality. Store the LP in a cool, dry place and keep it in its gatefold sleeve when not in use to protect it from dust and scratches. Also, be careful when removing and inserting the insert to prevent tearing. With proper care, this LP will provide you with great music for a long time.
