Quantic and his Combo Barbaro - 'Tradition In Transition'

Mon 06 Jul '09

OUT NOW

The wait is finally over, ‘Tradition In Transition’ is now officially out – apologies to those of you in the USA as you have to wait just one more week.

To make up for it Will Quantic Holland and photographer B+ (who directed the new Quantic film set in Will’s hometown of Cali) are on Garth Trinidad’s show on KCRW in the USA today 8-10pm (4-6am on Tuesday 7th UK time). It will be available here for listen again after the show.

We could waffle on and tell you how amazing this new project from Quantic and his Combo Barbaro is but the feedback we’ve had from press and DJ types says it all…

Gilles Peterson, BBC Radio 1: “Lush … A Brilliant LP … He’s stepped it up a couple of gears… He’s at the forefront of a new global sound”

Mr Scruff: “’Tradition In Transition’ is really, really good – as expected!”

Craig Charles, BBC 6Music: “Wonderful! Deep, organic and uniquely brilliant. His best work to date.”

Pathaan, BBC Asian Network: “A fantastic blend of South Indian meets Colombian… Absolutely mindblowing”

Phil Johnson, Independent On Sunday: 4/5

Nickodemus: “From the moment I heard the first mix of “The Dreaming Mind” I knew Quantic was taking his music to another level. Tradition in Transition is a Masterpiece for all generations!”
