Latest Release - “Prelude to Descent (LIVE at the Sultan Room)” - Released 02/06/2026
Prelude to Descent (Live at the Sultan Room) captures a moment of arrival and the beginning of something much larger.
Recorded live on November 6, 2025, at The Sultan Room in Brooklyn, New York, this album documents the first full-world unveiling of Prelude to Descent in front of an intimate but electric audience. What began as a studio album became, that night, a living cinematic experience — part concert, part story unfolding in real time.
With Ginelle Bamfo delivering live narration woven directly into the music, Philippe Lemm on drums, DJ Sach shaping ambient textures and effects, and FKAjazz leading on saxophone, keys, Ableton Live, and sonic manipulation, the performance became more than a setlist. It became a portal — where improvisation and storytelling collided, where jazztronica became something immersive, theatrical, and fully alive.
This live recording holds the raw edge of that room: the breath between phrases, the crowd’s energy, the tension and release of musicians building worlds together on stage. It is not simply a replay of the album — it is the album transformed by presence, by risk, by the unrepeatable chemistry of a singular night.
Prelude to Descent (Live at the Sultan Room) stands as both a celebration and a launchpad. The descent has begun, and this is the moment it first echoed back.
