Description
The tiny Rhodes run before the chorus in Afro Blue hints at how elastic this band can be. Robert Glasper Experiment’s Black Radio (2LP) – Deluxe Edition still feels like the clearest bridge between contemporary jazz technique and head-nod soul. Yasiin Bey floats over the title track while the group tucks little rhythmic feints under him. Their take on Smells Like Teen Spirit swaps angst for glide, yet keeps the tension simmering.
Spread across two records, the music breathes in a way the original single disc never quite did. Low end sits deeper, and the pocket gets even more magnetic without turning muddy. You’ll want this beside D’Angelo on the shelf, both for the swing and the songwriting nerve.
If you’d rather order online, you can buy Robert Glasper Experiment records online with us.
Late drives across Melbourne, tidy-ups on a Saturday, or a small gathering where conversation matters as much as groove, this pressing suits all of it. Afro Blue, Black Radio, and the sly vocal blend throughout land like a live set, not a collage. A decade on, it still plays like a manifesto for jazz musicians fluent in J Dilla’s language and classic Blue Note harmony. The Deluxe cut rewards volume and attention, but it’s generous at low levels too.
