Carsten Pieper 2021 finally brought a new album by one of the Daptone's "house bands". Again, the Menahans deliver their signature instrumental soul. Great stuff, often - but not always - calm and mellow and very relaxing to listen to! Favorite track: Queens Highway.

bakinata15 Every song on here is played so well. There are so many good hooks and the band just seems so locked in. Some tracks sound like they are from the future and the past, all at the same time. The vibe of the album is so consistent that it just sends you away right from the first track. These guys never disappoint in dealing out some of the best instrumentals I've ever heard. Favorite track: Midnight Morning.

about

Menahan Street Band, a veritable supergroup of some of today's most prolific songwriters, arrangers, and producers return with this beat-forward, cinematic masterpiece. If you have spent any time hanging out in bars, cafes, or casually tuning into NPR in the last 10 years you should be well versed in MSB's catalog. Their unique brand of instrumental soul has not only been the foundation for some of modern hip-hop's most successful beats, it has also become the perennial soundtrack and veritable vibe-generator for countless parties, art shows, and restaurants throughout NYC and abroad. While this album carries the aesthetic torch that MSB has skillfully woven into the tapestry of their DNA, it also delves deeper into the experimental, exotic sounds that fill many of the coveted Sound Library and Soundtrack LPs of the late sixties and early seventies - an amalgamation of moog synths, electric pianos, drum machines, and a bevy of analog instrumentation, that ebb and flow in lush swells of Morriconian grandeur.

about

Menahan Street Band Brooklyn, New York

In addition to their role as the official house band for Brooklyn-based Dunham Records, Menahan Street Band has received critical praise for their oft-sampled 2008 debut album Make The Road By Walking and for backing Charles Bradley. “Vibe is a quintessential element in what I’m going for,” says MSB co-founder, multi-instrumentalist and producer Thomas Brenneck. “Vibe, mood and emotion.” ... more
