Organ Recital is the multi-instrumentalist’s latest psychedelic production
Organ Recital is the latest album by Bastien Keb, following up to the 2020 album The Killing of Eugene Peeps. The artist is known for his layering of jazz, soul, and funk with a psychedelic twist to create a uniquely dynamic sound. Based out of England, Bastien Keb is a producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist who plays guitar, drums, bass, keyboards, trumpet, and the flute. Keb is also the co-founder of the project ‘Grandamme’ in partnership with Claudia Kane through the London-based label Def Pressé.
Bastien Keb’s first album debuted in 2015, titled, Drinking in the Shadows of Zizou. His work later appeared with the First World label in 2017 after remixing tracks from artists including Submotion Orchestra, Paper Tiger, and more. In 2020, Keb returned to the music scene after a short break to release an experimental album, The Killing of Eugene Peeps, which was conceptualized as a soundtrack to an imagined film.
The latest album, Organ Recital, is set to release in July. From the album, the first released single is “Pasadena,” a track that speaks to the fading memories of intimate encounters. The album weaves a combination of psychedelic, funk, and cinematic elements. The result is a construction of a fantasy world, an escape from loneliness, and subtle integration of the sounds of everyday life. Fragments remind listeners of the world around them while offering a dreamlike journey away from the present.
