Released in 2023 on the acclaimed Warp Records label, Excelsior is the ambitious and genre-defying record from Slauson Malone 1. Weaving together elements of electronic music, hip-hop, jazz, soul, and pop, the album spans 18 tracks in just under 45 minutes, rewarding patient listeners with a rich and layered sonic experience.
Excelsior is a deeply thoughtful work, drawing inspiration from unexpected sources including a cover of eccentric audio engineer Joe Meek and a track titled "Undercommons," named after the influential collection of essays by Black cultural theorists Fred Moten and Stefano Harney. The result is a record that feels both intellectually curious and emotionally resonant, making it a compelling addition to any collection.
