Masterology

VINYL FORMAT. Over the past dozen-plus years, England's widely celebrated New Mastersounds have been at the forefront of an international musical revolution. Rising from the fertile club culture of their hometown of Leeds, the adventurous foursome has drawn upon a deep knowledge of old-school R&B, soul, funk, and jazz tp create powerful, distinctive new music that's rooted in tradition yet consistently innovative and forward thinking.
Over the course of seven studio albums, along with numerous singles, EPs, remixes, live recordings, and compilation tracks, the New Mastersounds have evolved into a potent, influential musical force that's earned loyalty from a large and diverse worldwide fan base, while commanding respect from musicians and critics.
Now, Sundazed Music has assembled Masterology: the Pioneers of New British Funk Sounds, which collects a career-spanning selection of highlights from the New Mastersounds' catalog, along with a scintillating smattering of rarities. Distilling the band's widescreen sonic vision into a massively impressive package, it's a monumental testament to the New Mastersounds' seminal body of work. The double-LP gatefold edition, pressed on high-definition vinyl, contains 20 tracks, a killer celebration of the New Mastersounds' international funk uprising.
