Future Classic: Collucutor “Instead” (On The Corner Records)

Fantastic debut LP from Collucutor, the new jazz ensemble led by Tamar Osborn on sax and alto flute with production duties handled by Emanative.

You might have heard one track on our last MIMS monthly radio show (link) but frankly the LP is so great that we had to also feature it as a “Future Classic” selection as well. Scoop this one up on vinyl for maximum enjoyment!

“Instead draws on trajectories of sound that have been refracted over time & space and expressed at this vanishing point. Tamar Osborn plays with a studied talent and writes her passion into the arrangements that make Collocutor the songs of herself. Tumultuous journeys over eras and epochs to swirling carpet rides in places and spaces, night through day.”
