Kamasi Washington
Truth

Single US 2017 on Young Turks label
Jazz (Contemporary Jazz, Fusion)

Credits from AG Rojas' accompanying film for Kamasi Washington's "Truth". The 13 minute track “Truth” is Washington's first release on London based label Young Turks and will be featured on his forthcoming Harmony Of Difference EP. The music and film debuted as part of an original six-movement suite that premiered as part of this year’s Whitney Biennial and involves artwork and imagery by Washington's sister Amani Washington alongside a film by AG Rojas. The suite explores the philosophical possibilities of counterpoint – defined by Washington as “the art of balancing similarity and difference to create harmony between separate melodies”.
