WORK OF ART (CD)
The second album from Nigerian-born singer-songwriter and global superstar, Asake. Building on the sounds from his explosive debut, Mr. Money With The Vibe (which became Billboard's highest-charting debut album from a Nigerian artist), the fourteen-track album showcases Asake's winning formula of fusing traditional and contemporary African music into something equally unique and celebratory. The album highlights Asake's innate ability to cut through to global audiences, making him one of 2023's most intriguing artists to watch.

Multiplicities: A Repository of Non-Existent Objects is a book of twenty new Zorn compositions in the form of musical aphorisms. Inspired by the writings and thoughts of French philosopher Gilles Deleuze, the music is wildly imaginative and meticulously structured, filled with unexpected twists and turns jumping from rock, jazz, and classical, to funk, metal, and more. This first volume presents the first ten aphorisms performed by Zorn's dynamic new ensemble Chaos Magick. John Medeski, Brian Marsella, Matt Hollenberg, and Kenny Grohowski (four members of Zorn's innermost circle) perform with an intense passion and painstaking attention to detail. Filled with fiery solos and bizarre juxtapositions, this is a multifaceted exploration of instrumental music at its wildest extremes.
