LATE NIGHT TALES: BADBADNOTGOOD

First things first, I think some of the reviews here are for the album IV, which was an earlier release from the band.The records are available in three different colours, standard black, white (limited to 500, and now sold out), and an orange version, available via VinylMePlease. The albums come with a download code for the mix and unmixed tracks in FLAC,WAC and MP3 formats,and a high quality Art Print.This is the latest instalment in a long running series, featuring tracks and artists who have influenced the compilers, for more info visit LateNightTales.co.uk.The band set out to create a soundtrack for reflection and meditation, and it is instantly accessible thanks largely to tracks by The Chosen Few and their cover of People Make The World Go Round, Esther Phillips Home Is Where The Hatred Is, Delegations Oh Honey and Charlotte Day Wilson's Work, to name just a few of my own personal favourites, but there is a far greater depth too, to most of the other tracks, that will make you want to revisit it again and again. Kiki Gyan's Disco Dancer and Donnie and Joe Emerson's Baby deserve a special mention, given that I had never heard either before, and there is an exclusive cover version by Badbadnotgood of Andy Schauf's "To You."The final track is a recital by Lydia Lunch, called You,Me and Jim Beam, and this too deserves a special mention here, simply exquisite.They have crafted a soulful, reflective, and warming compilation, that's perfect to relax and unwind to.

Great collection of various artists picked by this very cool Canadian jazz band. There is also a download code inside CD cover for mp3, wav and flac files - mixed version (as on cd) + individual songs.

The first album I've bought by BBNG and it ticks most boxes. Sort of modern jazz rythms fused with electronica, though they would probably hate that description!

One of the best records this year, total classic.Having seen them live a few years ago, they have come on a long journey into what you hear now, so good, buy iy now!

Arrived within 10 days . Had III by the artist I think this is even better I just can't stop playing it and I'm an old fella.Triffic !!

Good good not bad bad, really great album time. A banger in time moves slow, what a song👌🏿

Bought as a gift but the recipient is very happy!

Got this record and I love the selection, I love the band, and I love the vibe!But bro… it came open, there was no plastic packaging around, and no downloading code. Somebody just stole it, and I didn’t event care to put it back! Not event taking about what else should be inside? That’s really annoying. I probably will never again buy records on Amazon. Who know what will happen next, somebody will steal the poster?!

I first heard of this band way back in 2016 and I've got to say that I wasn't sure what to expect given their band name "BADBADNOTGOOD." At first, I thought it was just a random band that was making music, but it wasn't until I started listening to many songs by them that I knew that they weren't just any band. This album by them truly proves that, and the song that completely stands out is "In Your Eyes."A song so beautiful and so well crafted that can make any grown man cry.

album fantastico, un must have per gli amanti della musica jazz, jazz oltretutto influenzato da diverse correnti musicali

An excellent back to mine series with some original music. This is one of the better ones from this collection

Un álbum qué debe escuchar quien sea si inmediatamente le gusta la música.Recomiendo mucho escucharlos y tenerlo, La propuesta central de la banda es la fusión del jazz con el hip hop instrumental, lo cual les da un toque especial y único a este gran álbum titulado IVLas joyas del álbum son: Time Moves Slow e In your eyes.El envío de prime cómo siempre excelente, llego antes de los previsto.

ヒップホップ方面のメジャーアーティストとのコラボですっかり有名になったバンドだが、彼ら自身のアルバムは、サンプリング文化を通過した後のフリーキーなジャズファンク。所謂ライブラリーミュージックとしての70sのクロスオーバージャズ、言ってみれば、これが彼らの奏でている音楽ジャンルに一番近いのでしょうが、人力ジャズファンクのまな板の上に、現代のカッティングエッジなジャンルの音楽を次々と乗せて行っている感じで、当時のクロスオーバージャズとも空気感は異なる。バカテクミュージシャン なおかつ レコードマニア、そんな人たちが集まって、サンプリングミュージックによく使われるようなシネマティックなライブラリーミュージックを楽しみながら人力でグルーヴィに奏でている、そんな感じ。コンセプトとしては他のバンドでも見られるコンセプトではあるのだが、このバンドはとにかくそれを素晴らしい楽曲としてまとめ上げるスキルがあり、聴いているだけで気分が高揚し、尚且つ音楽的偏差値を深めていけるような過去の音楽をサンプリングした興味深い仕掛けが、箇所箇所に仕掛けられている。スカミックなジャケットを含めて現代を象徴する音の一つ。是非その混沌としたグルーヴに身を任せてみてほしい。
