OUI009 : SPACE808 / Multidimensional Memory - Dimensional Stairs 

A special Ugoki! Bandcamp with their 2 albums - OJP047 and OJP067

SPACE 808 is a jazz combo of 5 musicians all involved in different avant garde/ contemporary / electronic jazz or even experimental bands. The purpose of their music is first to find back the concept of human origins and the universe in a space like soundtrack that they built from scratch through very long live 15 to 25 minutes improvisations. The music is then edited in various tracks. It can take time to enter in their universe but once you're drown in their music you may recall the common consciousness of all human beings and all living things that have been in us since we were born. Space jazz to float in your mind! The final track is a very introspective close encounter with the famous George Gershwin song 'Summertime'. 

Dimentional Stairs new album was recorded on January 19, 2022 at Nakano Pignose in Tokyo. 5 long tracks that navigate through ambient experimental space jazz. The sax, the guitar and the piano weave a spiritual fabric that make you float in your mind while the rhythm section bring a smooth but solid texture. The whole performance is again a total improvisation but a steady and thrilling one! An album that you can listen over again and again and always discover something new, being sounds or spirit! Enjoy!
