Debut album by Austin Peralta (son of groundbreaking skater, Stacy) released on Brainfeeder and featuring The Cinematic Orchestra.

Flying Lotus is a massive fan: “This is a step in direction of where I want Brainfeeder to go. True musicianship as well as some interesting electronics.”

As the Brainfeeder label owner recalls, “people would always tell me about this genius jazz pianist. He’s like 17 or 18 and already sounds like McCoy Tyner! I had to go and see what was up, so Dr Strangeloop introduced me, and I got to hear this amazing record.” And once he’d heard it there was only one outcome. It is, after all, the Brainfeeder way. “We had to put it out.”

Austin Peralta is a classically trained jazz musician and was previously a session player for everyone from Erykah Badu to Shafiq Husayn, also playing with legendary LA big band Horace Tapscott’s Pan Afrikan People’s Arkestra.

LA native and son of legendary Z-Boy skater and documentary film-maker Stacy Peralta.

The album features collaborations with The Cinematic Orchestra and singer Heidi Vogel.
