The creative bond between Atjazz and Fred Everything is a story decades in the making. It began in 1998 at The Bomb in Nottingham during a DiY label night-a label through which they both released music. That first encounter sparked a lasting friendship and a steady exchange of ideas that would continue for many years. While they collaborated regularly and remixed each other's work, it wasn't until the summer of 2022 that they committed to making a full-length album.The project took shape during an 8-day stay at Martin's (Atjazz) home in the Midlands of England, where they set themselves the challenge of writing one track per day. Their shared musical language allowed ideas to move quickly, with some tracks forming in under an hour. Over the next three years, the material was carefully developed alongside their respective album projects: Atjazz's "Starbase 17", Fred Everything's JUNO-nominated "Love, Care, Kindness & Hope", and All Is Well's "A Break In Time".A final session in Montreal in 2024, coinciding with Fred's 50th birthday, brought the album into focus. From there, the duo invited a select group of world-class collaborators, including Jorge Bezerra (The Joe Zawinul Syndicate / St Germain), Octavio N. Santos (SiR, Lupe Fiasco), Clyde Beats, Ernesto & The Basement Gospel, and Dominique Fils-Aime.The result is a personal, well-constructed record that draws on the spirit of 90s deep house while applying three decades of experience to a deeply rooted, forward-thinking sound. It is a sonic testament that honors their mutual love of synthesizers, beat making, and sound design.It is a project that took 8 days to start, 3 years to finish, and 30 years to perfect.Tracklisting:A1.
