Break of Dark

"Digital Emotion & Outside In The Dark" (2002) is a compilation album that brings together two key works by Digital Emotion, an Italian Euro-dance and Italo-disco group. Digital Emotion is known for their vibrant, synth-heavy sound, which fuses Italo-disco, electronic dance music, and Euro-dance influences. Their music was particularly popular in the late 80s and 90s, with a distinctive style that often featured high-energy beats, catchy melodies, and electronic instrumentation. This compilation, released in 2002, likely includes tracks from their previous albums Digital Emotion and Outside In The Dark, two significant records that highlight their electronic dance sound. The album offers a chance to experience their signature blend of Italo-disco, Euro-dance, and synth-pop through the years.

Days of FreeMan is a retrospective album that picks up where Divine Travels ended, further exploring the identity of saxophonist James Brandon Lewis. The album is a soundscape inspired by and channeling, but not duplicating, the fragmented sounds of his early childhood days in Buffalo, NY, on Freeman Street, where his ears were washed with early '90s hip-hop. Through sound, each track explores vital themes of earlier times and today - social, political, scientific and religious.

Tenor saxophonist James Brandon Lewis, along with bassist Jamaaladeen Tacuma and drummer Rudy Royston, delivers a taut, street-smart set, rooted firmly in hip-hop ancestry yet crafted to honor the tenets of inspired jazz improvisation. References to venerated elders from diverse genres permeate both the music and Lewis’ written narrative, including shout-outs to historic hip-hop groups and rap-music forebears like A Tribe Called Quest, Digable Planets and Lee “Scratch” Perry. To make an even larger point about the grand scope of African-American heritage, interspersed throughout are recorded excerpts of Lewis’ grandmother, Pearl Lewis, ruminating on such topics as freedom, faith, family and the power of gospel music.
