Magic In Threes - Three [LP]

On vinyl for the first time w/ new cover art. Limited edition 1LP. The music would make the perfect fit in movies like the recently released Dolomite revamp, and the now cult classic Black Dynamite. But it doesn't fit into a blaxploitation soundtrack style box alone. You could imagine iconic rappers like Ghostface or Black Thought using these soundscapes. '3' would even fit comfortably next to classic KPM or de Wolfe library releases from the mid 70's, just as well as current indie trio, Khruangbin. A heavy drum break intro and trippy wah-wah guitar licks accompany cinematic strings and stirring horns on 'Finnish Funk,' followed by the killer sleazy bass and fuzz guitar of 'Breezy Day', two standout cuts both included on previously released 45's by KU that swiftly sold out. Contributing to the scene of classically-tinged soul and funk beats with contemporary class, MI3 display a smooth burst of colourful moody grooves with lush Rhodes keys and soulful head-nod breaks. With stellar musicianship throughout, the band present top shelf tunes for the crate digging DJ and discerning music collector alike. Formed just shy of a decade ago, the group shows skills far beyond their years together.
