First Listen: The Heliocentrics, 'A World Of Masks'
This UK-based funk ensemble took its name from a Sun Ra album. One listen to A World Of Masks and you'll hear why.
When a band is capable of many musical styles, it can be thrilling to hear them all on a single album. But it can be just as fun when the group dives deep into one mode, focusing their musical experience and artistic imagination into a coherent vision. That's howfeels. The UK-based ensemble, which has included up to nine members, has in the past delved into hip-hop (first making their name on DJ Shadow's 2006 album ), jazz, psych, funk, Afrobeat and more.
