Blue Sun - Andre 3000 CD

Description: Blue Sun Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format CD Condition Brand New Description While hes widely considered one of the best rappers of all time, this distinction often overshadows Andre 3000s tendencies for the absurd. In OutKast, his partner Big Bois strong and steady presence often grounded the group when Andres wordplay veered toward the psychedelic or his musical ideas wandered. When they ventured down individual paths on 2003s groundbreaking Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, Big Boi stuck mostly to party funk and rap bangers, while Andre went off the rails completely, bending pop, swing, jazz, electro, and anything else that suited him around songs whose flagrant ridiculousness was an integral part of what made them so incredible. New Blue Sun is Andre 3000s first official solo album, and though its made by one of the worlds most gifted rappers, it contains no rapping, no singing, no beats (though some percussion happens), not even the genre-hopping hes previously indulged in. Instead of the rap masterpiece hes no doubt capable of, 3000 instead turns in an entirely instrumental album of meditative soundscapes centered around woodwinds. When you take into account his proclivity for the surreal and the ridiculous, releasing a nearly 90-minute-long collection of ambient flute jams is one of the most Andre 3000 things Andre 3000 could do. If you can get past the premise (and overlook the goofy song titles, most of which are too long and silly to dignify here) and tune in to New Blue Sun as an album of contemplative healing sounds, its pleasant and sometimes even sublime. Carlos Nino co-produces, bringing the same soft warmth hes cultivated on his own transcendental pop albums for the International Anthem label. The songs wash by in waves of airy synth pads, gentle wind chimes, electric piano, or absent-minded guitar lines. 3000 is joined by a host of players including Nate Mercereau, Diego Gaeta, Surya Botofasina, Mia Doi Todd, and others, all of whom fold new textures effortlessly into the stream of sounds. Opening track "I Swear, I Really Wanted to Make a Rap Album But This Is Literally the Way the Wind Blew Me This Time" is among the most structured pieces, moving in patient ripples similar to Pharoah Sanders and Floating Points majestic Promises. Most of the eight tracks meander past ten-minute run times, wobbling in and out of focus as Andre burbles along on various woodwinds. "Dreams Once Buried Beneath the Dungeon Floor Slowly Sprout into Undying Gardens" is one of the albums blurriest excursions, but also one of its best. Ninos metered gong swells and swishes of arrhythmic percussion dance with synths, flutes, and other opaque ambiance for just over 17 minutes. Its hovering and aimless like Emerald Webs or Alice Coltranes most new age material, vibrating constantly but never bubbling over. New Blue Sun is probably not the Andre 3000 solo debut most OutKast fans had expected or hoped for, but it does continue the integrity and spirit of his creative journey, in a way thats fittingly bizarre and beautiful.
