Arthur King - UMN (The Red Turtle)

Arthur King collective performed "UMN (The Red Turtle)" last year in May at The River in Los Angeles, and thanks to AKP Recordings the whole event can be now re-witnessed on tape and Bandcamp. The improvised performance, inspired by Studio Ghibli's 2016 animated fantasy The Red Turtle, was broadasted in a quadraphonic mode, letting the audience immerse themselves into this experience in full. Carla Azar, David Ralicke, M.A. Tiesenga, Senon Williams and Peter Walker rep the Artur King mantle here, delievering a subtle, minimal score that will lure you their world of slow burning jazz. Hypnotizing.
