Special limited edition "10 years of 22a" repress of Ed 'Tenderlonious' Cawthorne's debut LP - a cornerstone recording in the new wave of UK jazz. One-off pressing of 300 numbered copies, double transparent orange vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve. 'The Shakedown' features a dream team of top talent Tenderlonious named the 22archestra, who he leads seamlessly throughout. Listeners are exposed to the full breadth of Cawthorne's technical and compositional skills, ranging from subtly meandering jazz, to hip hop, Afrobeat, Latin and exhilarating free form jazz. The groups includes former Yussef Kamaal member Yussef Dayes on drums, Ruby Rushton bassist Fergus Ireland and producers Reginald Omas Mamode IV and Jeen Bassa on percussion. Ed 'Tenderlonious' Cawthorne: flute & synth Hamish Balfour: keys Fergus Ireland: bass Yussef Dayes: drums Reginald Omas Mamode IV, Jeen Bassa, Konrad: percussion Press: "(8/10) Jazz scene standout...the sound is a startling delight thanks to Tender's ability to marshal his crew to his step." - DJ Mag "This is 100 per cent live-instrumental jazz, but it's also unmistakably London club music, with its heart in Dingwalls, Plastic People (RIP) and anywhere else people really dance to sophisticated sounds...it's music for a proper party." - Mixmag "In 2018, Cawthorne is one of the musicians blowing new life into the London jazz scene...Cawthorne's take on jazz is a hybrid, involving hefty infusions of hip hop and hip hop-derived styles, and like Kamaal Williams, he is at the beat-centric end of the new-jazz spectrum." - **** All About Jazz "Standouts are many: the propulsive fusion of Maria. SV Disco, an ode to Dilla's group Slum Village, with its slinky clubfloor vibes and ferocious solo flute wig-out. Compelling stuff." - **** Evening Standard
