Listen To Clear Path Ensemble's New Album 'Solar Eclipse'

Uplift your entire week with the sonic rays emanating from Clear Path Ensemble's second album Solar Eclipse, the exploratory jazz project helmed by Te Whanganui-a-Tara percussionist / production maestro Cory Champion (Borrowed cs, CRUSH). Out via influential London-based imprint Soundway, the new record's cast of guest instrumentalists includes Johnny Lawrence, Daniel Hayles, Michelle Velvin, Tristan Carter, Ruby Solly and Mike Isaacs. An intricately arranged, ten track journey through interstellar body-moving grooves, luxurious melodies, atmospheric ambience and space/time-fragmenting rhythms, Champion explained how he applied his not inconsiderable skills in electronic music production to create Solar Eclipse...

“...for a long time I had ambitions to make this project but always planned on it being recorded traditionally. Ultimately, I was encouraged by a new DIY spirit in contemporary jazz, where electronic music production techniques are fully integrated in the recording and production of great new contemporary jazz music.” - Cory Champion

'Solar Eclipse' is out now on streaming services via Soundway — vinyl orders available HERE.
