Jin Mu is taken from the Chinese Zodiac and translates to the elements of Metal (Jin) and Wood (Mu); herein lies the concept for this record. Tucceri plays a selection of wooden and metal flutes and Zeitgeist plays drums and cymbals. Having worked together for several years on the project ‘Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange’ Zeitgeist and Tucceri come together here in a very intimate and vulnerable setting. In a time where we fight for each others attention in 10 second social media grabs, the duo offer something of the opposite. An opportunity to tap out of the technological bombardment and allow the listener the place to reflect, to ponder, to imagine. A beautiful, meditative release from La Sape Records.

This collection of ’70s rhythmic gospel rarities doesn’t feel like Gospel in the traditional sense. These working musicians were deeply entwined with the funky, soulful sounds of their time. The tracks are a subset of 1970s-era Gospel, not directly talking about Jesus or God, but instead tackling how we live with ourselves and each other. Compiled by Gospel guru Greg Belson, these are undeniably soulful, passionate, and urgent songs long forgotten on obscure 45s and rescued from attics and sheds across the American south. Incredible release!

The second round of Man Jumping remixes on Emotional Rescue sees another strike force of big hitters tackling the illustrious material from an overlooked 80s curio. Bullion steps up first with a typically dynamic, many-sided version of "In The Jungle". Reckonwrong's take on "Sqeezi" channels his twee, off-kilter pop tendencies in brilliant fashion. Gengahr brings a touch of indie urgency to "Down The Locale", while Bullion returns for another fantastic remix on "Walk On, Bye". To close, William Doyle's angular guitar processing and surging, vibrant peaks bring a thrilling new slant to "Belle Dux On The Beach".
