Description
スピリチュアルなジャズやハウス、アンビエントの要素を融合させたHumble B Flatの3作目となるヴァイナル作品。前作『Source of the Nile』がOsunladeやKai Alceといったディープ・ハウスのレジェンドたちから支持されたように、本作もまた類稀なる深みを湛えている。
Blessings of the Sunは既にGiant StepsやLuarといったロフト・パーティーでダンスフロアを熱狂させ、新進気鋭のDJMillie McKeeのNTS番組でも紹介されるなど、その評価は確かなものになりつつある。
CofloやTour-Maubourg、Delfonic、Felipe Gordonらから称賛が寄せられ、FloFilzのSpotifyプレイリストにも選出されるなど、その影響力は計り知れない。
ジャケットは著名なアーティストAnnie Fiddian Greenが手がけ、限定プレスという貴重な仕様。Pond Life RecordsのGottwood Festivalでのステージ・テイクオーバーも控え、Humble B Flatの音楽が新たな領域へと導く。

Pond Life Records presents Humble B Flat’s third vinyl release – Blessings of the Sun, a spiritual jazz-infused deep house double LP.
His previous album, Source of the Nile - promoted through a more grassroots approach than this forthcoming release — saw great success, with purchases via Bandcamp by deep house legends like Osunlade and Kai Alce. It also received radio play on shows such as Macca’s acclaimed The Glove That Fits on NTS, among others.
The release has garnered heartwarming messages from the likes of Coflo, Tour-Maubourg, Delfonic, and Felipe Gordon, and was recently spotted in FloFilz’s Spotify recommendations.
Blessings of the Sun has already been lighting up dance floors at loft-inspired parties such as Giant Steps, Luar, and Beija Flor.
Blessings of the Sun is receiving a more focused promotional rollout. It has already been played on rising star Millie McKee’s NTS show. As with past releases, only a limited number of copies will be pressed. Artwork is by renowned artist Annie Fiddian Green, and more new music from Humble B Flat is on the horizon.
With a Pond Life stage takeover set for one of Resident Advisor’s top festival picks, Gottwood, pre-empting the release, we’re excited to see where this double LP from Humble B takes us.
