New Zealand musician Joe Kaptein delivers Eternal Afternoons, a sun-drenched 2024 collection of original compositions rooted in the jazz-funk spirit of 70s innovators like Donald Byrd and Lonnie Liston Smith. Drawing from a rich palette of drum machine and synth-driven psych-lounge, Krautrock, experimental jazz, and Bacharachian pop, Kaptein channels an expansive musical vision with remarkable depth and range.
Eternal Afternoons weaves together hints of dub, disco, and 70s soul into what has been described as "a joyful antidote to these troubled times," showcasing five kaleidoscopic yacht-jazz-funk originals alongside a Wurlitzer-led reimagining of Charles Stepney's "Oh, By The Way," famously recorded by Minnie Riperton. For fans of genre-blurring, groove-forward music with genuine heart, this is an uplifting and essential listen.
