This album by Khingz was created in conversation with my latest 'From The Ashes of Our Homes'. Playing the two albums back to back tells a bigger story. Gabriel Teodros
CopperWire is the trio of Meklit Hadero, Burntface & Gabriel Teodros. 'Earthbound' is the soundtrack to a science-fiction film that was never seen. Nnedi Okorafor wrote the liner notes. Gabriel Teodros
Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
