Shaolin Afronauts - The Fundamental Nature of Being: Part Four

2022 CD release.

After an extended hiatus punctuated by rare live performances, The Shaolin Afronauts returned on September 16th this year with The Fundamental Nature of Being, an epic five album set release that expands the sonic vision of the ensemble to towering new heights of burning afro-funk alongside esoteric and ethereal new sonic excursions.

The Fundamental Nature of Being's expanded musical journey further explores the wide spectrum of the band's musical identity – with each of the five parts designed as both standalone records, while also offering a singular listening journey across the band's expansive musical world. This fourth part in the collection continues to explore the ensemble's influences in the world of free jazz & spirtual jazz, and also more esoteric incidental music territory.
