Stream: Nujabes – Spiritual State (Album Teaser)
These two minutes give you a good taste of the album’s atmosphere and the common theme of ‘Spiritual State’. Both instrumental material with the trademark piano-based influences, as well as tracks complemented with vocals by the likes of Cise Star, Substantial and Pase Rock. Also listen to ‘Spiral‘, a full song that was uploaded on Youtube by Digi Crates Records yesterday, ‘Yes‘ featuring Pase Rock, and ‘Down On The Side‘.
It sounds like a promising outcome for fans of Nujabes who have been patiently waiting for a new official full-length release since ‘Modal Soul’. But it also raises a question: how much of this material is actually made by the hands of Jun Seba, and what was augmented and/or finished after his tragic death? Soon we’ll publish a review of ‘Spiritual State’, but in the meantime enjoy the aforementioned previews or order the album below.
